Hey! My mom recently decided to cancel her subscription to Netflix as she didn’t to give money to corporations and heard about how I got everything I needed online through Torrenting.

I decided to make a little surprise for her and make her the most convenient TV setup she can easily use!

It’s hard because I’m a tech-savvy guy and I just watch everything with VLC/mpv after getting it on qBitTorrent. For her convenience as she knows little about piracy, I don’t want to force her to look for the ideal torrents, and the language/subtitles.

(☞゚ヮ゚)☞ Here’s my idea: the ideal Streamio + + Torrentio + Trakt on an Android TV.

I just need to know about some things:

  • Your recommended Stemio add-ons to make her life easier. I need to read this list (GitHub’s awesome-stremio)
  • If she doesn’t find the show in French in the list, how to make it super easy to get the right subtitles from OpenSubtitles?
  • We have a Mi Stick as an Android TV and the experience has been very bad, It’s tiny & laggy, I shouldn’t have bought this for her.
  • That’s why I want to know your experience with Nvidia Shield and which model should I get for a snappy experience?

If you have any other advices, please do enlighten me !! -noctis

    Can only help with the last point - Nvidia Shield is a beast. I have two of the 2019 Pro and they’re just great, nothing comes even close. I’ve also had the 2017 version and it was great as well. Can’t speak for the base model, haven’t had a chance to try.

      So it’s snappy and allows for sideloading ? To what extent can you remove the bloat of Google, privacy-wise?
