fmovies has been gone almost a month. I should have added “FBI” up there but really they used FBI to shoot down the service, not be like them.

I don’t understand when these companies are going to learn that sharing their IP is going to get them more money than being so fractured.

I started using sudo-lol and seems okay. Streaming can be hinky at times but it works for most of the things I want to watch.

I know that torrenting can be a thing but sometimes I just want to watch and not deal with a whole finding a torrent, download, and then watch workflow.

Does sudo flix work like stremio with torrentio? I.e. I just type what I want and get a list of pirate sources to watch directly?

Yeah, but not as good. RealDebrid basically acts as a CDN for torrents, they’re serving you the files they’ve already downloaded directly to you.

From what I can tell, sudo flix is streaming torrents from the seeders, so you are reliant on there being enough seeders with decent upload speeds.

Somebody feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

First time seeing debrid. Looks interesting. Is it a paid service? When looking for an API key I’m seeing multiple places I can get one but they all require a login/subscription. The real debrid link is giving me a 403, though I am connecting from China over a VPN which may explain it.

Yes, it’s a paid service. It’s about 3 or 4 euro per month. I tried it once because I was annoyed by the lack of seeders and buffering in stremio and I’ve never looked back since. It requires a bit of setup, but when that’s done you’re good to go.

With stremio I can copy the strem link to potplayer and potplayer will buffer a good chunk of strem more than stremio’s default player does

VPN recommended or?

You shouldn’t need a VPN to access sudo lol instances since the connection is encrypted. Your ISP has no way of telling what you’re watching so long as your browser always accesses https vs http.

That said, I’ve heard wonderful things about Mullivad.

I am confused. Sudoflix is down since a week or two already. How is it still working for you? They had a successor that they named on their page, maybe you mean that one.

I’m not sure what OP’s talking about, because fmovies is working for me just fine.

What URL are you using? I didn’t realize they had multiple. Another user posted their .lcc domain.

I’ve had this open in a tab for several weeks now. Just refreshed, checked new episodes of stuff that’s come out in the last few days, no issues. I wasn’t even aware there were mirrors/clones.

Huh, thanks for sharing, I didn’t get this one so far. I saw a link to one of the sites on it and that’s it.

Losing fmovies wasn’t the bad thing as there are dozens of clones. It’s the hosting services that really took a hit. The reliable ones have been down for a while. The ones left buffer much slower and can’t handle peak times as well. Those years with fmovies really felt like the golden age of piracy.

Dude, there is the golden age I’ve waited 20yrs for.

Check sonarr/radarr/prowlarr/lidarr etc. A lil work, some mere bucks a month for extra comfyness and you’re set. Never worry again.

I’d never pirate myself, obviously, but a friend in a restrictive country is interested in this. Is there an “easy to get started” guide for him?

I would pay legit services. But to see it all i would need multiple services with multiple apps, half of which wouldn’t run on my rooted devices. So fuck them.

Sadly no. Not that i know. But once it’s setup it basically runs forever without tinkering. Impressive for open-source. Could name the software and/or services that are helpful.

I’d recommend TraSH-Guides

There also is the Servarr Wiki

Generally I agree. But I’d be willing to pay what I would pay a streaming company if they had all the content I wanted.

Silly argument, as i pay for internet too. Also 5 bucks are not even a fucking coffee. For that i get what i dreamt of when i was selling pirate-cds for hundreds of bucks.

Pay for a vpn, which is good for more than just piracy (mostly piracy though)
