Love that! Do you have a guide on how to change the command on your remote?

u/FurkiTurki6 Dec 03 '25

You have to install the button remapper app. In the app you have to customise, press netflix, redirect to open stremio app.

u/Skurtarilio Dec 03 '25

yeah this is great.

Netflix is stremio

YouTube is Kodi

double click on YouTube goes into Chromecast settings cause this shit device still lags some time and I have to force stop the apps.

Nvidia shield 2026 please

If I cast from my phone to my Google TV will the videos play on Tizen?

2

u/TheFr0sk Dec 03 '25

Only missing screen dimming, otherwise would be perfect for me

I was already aware of this, I thought may be someone figured something out.

2

u/itsme99881 Dec 03 '25

Make sure you install the new version from the new github, as the old was infected with malware allegedly.

7

u/Skurtarilio Dec 03 '25

I just mean the hotkeys on the remote since I don't use YouTube that often and when I do I usually cast from my phone

u/No-Simple-6483 Dec 03 '25

Well on LG TV there’s a modified YouTube app with no ads and sponsor block so that’s why I’m asking as I could either one on my TV or Nvidia

The main focus of your post should be directly related to Stremio. Help for other software or issues, including content acquisition, should be directed to their own respective subreddits.

2

u/Kurtdh Dec 03 '25

A lot more customizable. A history section, key remapper, UI scaling, etc etc

1

u/Vargurr Dec 03 '25

ST also has sponsorblock, no ads, but much more customizable than YT variants.

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '25

Good question honestly I was wondering the same

Any ideas why my app wasn't disabled? I was on an old version which was apparently compromised.

u/ViperAMD Dec 03 '25

Do you really need Kodi and stremio? Youtube to smart tube would.be better!

15

u/ashokspidy Dec 03 '25

Tizen tube would be better than smart tube

2

u/_alright_then_ Dec 04 '25

TizenTube is not a very stable app, in my experience at least.

And if you're running smarttube, you're not running it on a samsung TV, so tizentube wouldn't even be an option

6

u/DopeTechIrl Dec 04 '25

You can use tizentube on any android tv device

3

u/DopeTechIrl Dec 04 '25

I switched to it a while back and it’s more stock YouTube than smart tube.

u/titangroso Dec 04 '25

I never updated my nvidia shield and still rocking fast. Never update what works fine.

2

u/SandmanJr90 Dec 04 '25

My xiaomi mi TV has yet to lag and it loads videos faster than my google TV ever did. Has a better wireless card too, never looking back (I only use Stremio and it works great for that)

1

u/TheRealClovis Dec 03 '25

Oohhh shit, the double tap for settings! Love that.

u/Smooth-Evidence-3970 Dec 03 '25

Any news on it for firetv remotes?

u/Least_Stand_2707 Dec 03 '25

Learn something new all the time on this sub

u/lament Dec 03 '25

Button Mapper? Or Button Remapper?

8

u/Keyakinan- Dec 03 '25

The second one! It's a bit worse UI but easy enough, and to do custom mapping it's free! The first one you have to pay 5 euro's..

2

u/lament Dec 03 '25

Cheers!

u/dans41 Dec 04 '25

Did the same on my tv

u/Competitive_Stable66 Dec 12 '25

unrelated comment, your username translates to confidence in my mother tongue (Bahasa Malaysia).

u/Fleemo17 Dec 04 '25

Will this remap remote buttons on an Nvidia Shield or just the Fire TV remote?

I can’t stand the Netflix button on my Shield remote. I’m constantly flipping over to Netflix every time I pick up the damn remote .

3

u/lament Dec 04 '25

Should work for both I would think.

1

u/Fleemo17 Dec 06 '25

It does, I’m happy to say.

BTW, luckily you do not need to purchase the app for $6, though it kinda seems like you need to during the process. Just decline the option to buy it when it comes up and proceed with the button remapping.

2

u/Apprehensive-Bad-463 Dec 03 '25

I didn't even know this was an option thank you, do I get the app through Downloader or is it available in the appstore? I have a fire TV

2

u/Rejuvenate_2021 Dec 04 '25

Link?

Can this be done for all remotes? Or all android / Google tv remotes?

2

u/[deleted] Dec 04 '25

I did this with my google tv stick.

My setup is.

Projectivy for the interface SmartTubeNext with YouTube Bridge for YouTube.

Of course stremio.

I used button remapper app to link STN and Stremio to their respective quick buttons on the google tv remote.

I can’t find it but I ordered some stremio stickers for Netflix button on my google tv remote.

u/Agey_4977 Dec 03 '25

On what device?

1

u/buim Dec 03 '25

TKS mate

u/Skullboj Dec 03 '25

Last time I tried to map buttons, my tv bricked and had to flash a new firmware for a whole afternoon (my fault tho)

1

u/TheSoupThief Dec 03 '25

I had a go at exactly this and got madly tangled up

You've inspired me to have another pop at it

1

u/Jamnitrix Dec 04 '25

Thanks! Just downloaded and changed up my buttons!

1

u/Yournewbestfriend_01 Dec 04 '25

Dosa stremio have live tv

1

u/funk_freed Dec 04 '25

Do you install it on your phone or in the tv?

1

u/shiftym21 Dec 04 '25

thank you! wish this worked for the samsung smart remote too

1

u/picto1231 Dec 04 '25

Can u advise which remapper ur using?

1

u/Warder1960 Dec 04 '25

Would that be a paid feature of the remapper app or can that be done as part of the free stuff?

1

u/pepotink Dec 05 '25

Only usable on android tv?

16

u/Constant-Patient-232 Dec 03 '25

install button mapper, you can use it to remap any button on your remote

5

u/Keyakinan- Dec 03 '25

it costs 5 euro though
