What else is the “remote HTTPS connection”? Is it possible to stream my stream OUTWARDS to WAN? (With port forwading) So I can just give friends a link to stream from my stream? Easy peasy? Would be super handy
If I remember correctly they added this feature right around the time they announced Stremio Web (basically their web interface/web-app).
The web-app was mainly intended for devices that cannot download the fully fledged app (coughIOS…cough). I think this “remote HTTPS connection” is related to that: You basically have the fully fledged Stremio app on one device, the limited web-app on another device, and use this remote server setting to give the web-app all the missing features as long as you have the fully fledged Stremio app running on one device. Never got it to work though.
Maybe this helps:
If you want to “share” you stream to friends, you could also look into the Peario add-on. They don’t need to have Stremio installed, share the Peario link, press ready and you’re done. Didn’t manage to get subtitles working though.
Edit: correction about Peario.
Yes you can and its super easy. Setup your conection through HTTPS block your port only locally, buy a 1$ domain and install cloudflared tunnel. (Cloudflare configures your own TLS.)
You should disable the instance, or try to modify some parameters so you have to connect via some login or password.
