  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.


The codebase is at https://github.com/Stremio/stremio-service

This is a dependency for stremio-gtk, another package that we are providing
in

I intend to be the official Debian Maintainer long term after debian
acceptance,
I have a possible sponsor but open to collaborate with others if there is
interest.
