I’ve been using my own streaming app for the past few years now.
I decided to rock my own thing because of the following reasons. Since many of the existing ones are closed source, you never know what data is collected. Kodi is fine, but I prefer nice UIs to browse my favorite content. And lastly, I’m a passionate developer.
The app consists of 3 parts:
the TV app itself
a backend service to fetch data from trakt/tmdb
a backend service for openscrapers (real debrid)
external player of choice (nova, vlc, …)
To get it up and running, you’d need to run the two backend services on your own server and install an external player like Nova, since it doesn’t provide a built-in player.
Would you guys be interested in it so I make my repos publicly available?
