I'll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It's not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.
You're viewing a single thread.
Since not many seem to know about it. Plex_Debrid is an awesome program and works on more than just plex!
Thats crazy, does it work well? I havent gotten into the debrid scene, but this is neat
I think it does work great. Just one dev I think and he’s been busy so some things need added/fixing. Active on the discord. I love it. Just search movies in plex and they're available immediately if cached on real Debrid and so much content is cached. Anything remotely popular.
Hm. What do you run it on? I could see an nivida shield running that well, but a firestick?
Fwiw, similar apps already exist for the Shield, Firestick, etc. Syncler & Stremio.
I run it on a docker on my headless Linux server. I imagine a shield can run it but prob not a fire stick.
I use jellyfin, should I be using this instead?
Plex Debrid works with Jellyfin too. You just also need to setup Trakt for the watchlist. As you add movies and shows to Trakt watchlists, plex Debrid will grab them and add to real Debrid and then refresh your jellyfin library.
Plex is just a little better since you can use the plex discover feature to add items to your watchlist
Hmm, ok I'm using sonarr, radarr, prowlarr, and jellyfin server, hooked up to my imdb/tmdb watchlists, so I just like something online and it appears on my PC.
Does this essentially provide the same service, If I've already set mine up how I like it?
Yeah pretty much. With the extra advantage that everything is on real Debrid so don’t need vpn (if you normally use one or don’t have a seedbox) and using their storage you don’t need local hard drive space. Also a slight disadvantage right now since real Debrid is down for maintenance so I cannot access a majority of my content. This is very rare as real debrid usually has like a good 99% uptime. Usually’ll locally download my favorite shows or movies from Debrid so i can access it if there is an outage or a local internet outage.
With your setup there may not be many pros to switching to this setup. I had an identical setup to yours years ago but this time around decided to stick with real Debrid and plex Debrid.
Plex Debrid doesn't actually download the file to your computer, it just streams it. It tricks your OS into thinking it's locally stored, but it isn't.
