* Package name : stremio-service Version : 0.1.14 Upstream Contact: Smart Code OOD <[email protected]> * URL : https://www.stremio.com/download-service * License : (GPL-2.0) Programming Lang: (Rust, Javascript) 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 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1119815 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.
