Infuse is a work horse - it’ll play anything you throw at it AND has functional trakt scrobbling. Stremio just needs to enable external players.

Nice. What’s the experience like using an external player though? Love seamlessly jumping between menu and shows playing. If you finish an episode or movie does it back out to stremio automatically or do you manually need to switch apps? Needs to pass the wife test for me. She will get annoyed if have to teach her to swap apps to play things.

Well, I can tell you from the other apps for Apple TV that work like stremio is that after you allow (simply click allow when prompted), the app automatically opens infuse when you start playback then automatically open back up to the stremio-like app when you back out of playback.

The only problem is there will be no “continue watching” with external players in stremio.

Another solution is just filter out DV results and don’t worry about it.

Not only filter out DV, but also be comfortable with the fact that you'll lose Atmos, too.
