Description : Streaming service component for Stremio media center
Stremio Service is a standalone streaming server component that provides the
backend functionality for Stremio media center applications. It handles media
downloading (torrenting and HTTP streaming), video transcoding, and format
conversion to ensure browser compatibility. The service runs as a system tray
application and exposes an HTTP API for Stremio clients to connect to.
The service acts as a companion app primarily designed for Stremio Web but
can also work with other Stremio clients. It provides essential features such
as automatic video conversion to browser-compatible formats using FFmpeg,
torrent streaming capabilities, and hardware-accelerated transcoding support.
The service listens on localhost ports 11470 and 12470 by default.
Written in Rust, stremio-service is a rewrite of the older Node.js-based
streaming server, offering improved performance and resource efficiency. It
supports multiple platforms including Linux (Debian, Fedora, Flatpak), macOS,
and Windows, and can be deployed as a Docker container for remote streaming
server scenarios.
