How to Install & Setup Stremio on Firestick/Android

Looks like the latest update for Stremio is out of beta and the production version has been released.

I was having similar issues the other day. I had followed the bootstrapper build on a Stremio test account using TorBox. After lots of troubleshooting, I eventually removed the Elfhosted version of the AIOStreams add-on and replaced it with the AIOStreamsForTheWeak version (which doesn’t include any rate limits or issues w/ Torrentio support), and that seems to have fixed the issues I was having. Not sure if that’s possibly contributing to your issue or not, but it’s something to consider.

Good find! The Elf version doesn’t allow you to add Torrentio.

FYI: For anyone setting up multiple Stremio accounts with different API keys in AIOStreams, you will need to reset configuration first, then clear browser cache, then open new tab, otherwise first API key will be used for second account. I was unable to change API and use same settings. Had clear to cache and redo all the settings.

Can you tell me if Trakt works with streamer as well​:head_shaking_horizontally:

My experience is that Trakt is not ideal with Stremio. @Miki will tell you he uses the Library in Stremio and not Trakt. I would agree that is a better option. Your Trakt Collection and Watchlist will populate the shows/movies but it’s just not a user friendly as it is using Trakt on Kodi. JMHO.

Stremio not downloading from Troypoint toolbox to firestick 4K. Unknown app is on for downloader. Any ideas?

Hello, if using a VPN try disabling that temporarily.

I have installed the stremio app off the Troy point toolbox, but every time I go out of Streamio and back in, I have to reinstall it to get it to work. Any help you can give me I appreciate it.

Still says app not loaded. When I click done it shows file was successfully loaded to /sdcard/Download/Downloader with the app address. But my firestick 4K does not have a sd card.

I look at files on Downloader and it shows the install file. Try loading from there it also says app not installed.

I tried to install a kodi fork from your toolbox and that also will not install.

Downloader install unknown apps is turned on.

Yeah I can’t get the 1.7.4 release from Troy’s toolbox to update on my Nvidia shield pro. It just comes up app not installed. I have 1.73 release currently

You can always uninstall the old one and install the new one and just log back in. All your settings for Stremio are saved in the cloud and will be applied automatically after the reinstall. I also have a Stremio installed on my tablet and do most of my configuration there as it’s easier and as it’s the same account and any setting changes I make there, are automatically applied across all my other devices. Syncs seamlessly. I should also note that on my tab the version is 2.0.1 while on my BuzzP6L Unlimited it is 1.7.4 but the 64 Bit one. The settings sync across the different versions including my addon configurations.

Something very wrong with this.

None of the add-ons install.

All I get is “Serialization error: expected value at line 2 column 4”.

Tried several different ones, same thing with all.

Have you tried uninstalling Stremio and doing a fresh install? Also for the addons >

This was a first time install, directly from the Troypoint Toolbox, so it was fresh, and I got the add-on links to enter from Troy’s posted list of 30 of the top community Stremio add-ons.

It would seem like a fairly simple thing for anyone under 75. Hit the + Add addon, enter URL, hit save. Doesn’t work, just tried again. Connected or not connected to VPN doesn’t matter either.

Just uninstalling. Things like this should just work

Not sure what you mean by enter URL. You never have to enter a URL in Stremio. Just find the addon you want to install, configure if necessary and hit install from the following site.

When trying to watch a show on my Amazon Firestick, I am not getting any downloads. I get the message that “Streams were found, but they were filtered due to your configuration, like languages, resolutions, quality, etc”.
When I check the Stremio app on my desktop computer, I am getting downloads.

Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this?

Thanks.

Yes go into whatever addon you are using and fix the problems it notes. For instance a release that is just out may have only a cam or telesync and you have not allowed for those to be sourced. You may have English only and a release is in English, French, Italian etc. some addons advanced configs can be daunting.

Hi there Miki

Just have a question on the stremio app. I followed Troy’s 3 videos to a T. Worked well. Then I wanted to do the Watchio add-on. I can get it on my computer and installed. But it will not sync to the TV. Everything I did worked except that. Any insights?

Thanks again

Miki,

Thanks for your reply. The addon I would like to use is Torrentio. Can you give me a little more info on how I know what the problems are and how to fix them? As I mentioned, I am able to get the downloads on my desktop computer Stremio app. Why is it ok on the desktop computer, but not on the Amazon Firestick?

Thanks.
