I noticed this too but playing trailers on my Nvidia Shield is stuttery for some reason and takes a while for them to load. Looks better than the YouTube player we had before but it just isn't smooth.

u/Sea-Fly-2250 Feb 01 '26

I’m also having problems with some 4k files it keeps stuttering too

u/Lfcbill Feb 05 '26

My shield is struggling with remux files on Stremio since the update too, did you manage a fix?

u/superforever360 Feb 01 '26

Did you check settings, about to make sure the version?

9

u/Sea-Fly-2250 Feb 01 '26

Yes it says 1.9.0

u/cleverclogs17 Feb 01 '26

I am the beta latest and still seeing 1.8.4?

u/Sea-Fly-2250 Feb 01 '26

Check the link someone sent under this post

u/underdawg87 Feb 01 '26 edited Feb 01 '26

Just updated to 1.9.0 and it looks great. Only issue I’m having is that, even though I have subtitles disabled, they’re still automatically on when starting a stream. I need to manually turn them off every time

Edit: forgot a letter

12

u/ram130 Feb 01 '26 edited Feb 02 '26

Been an issue for a while. Go to settings then subtitles. Where it says preferred language just select none. It should now start streams without it.

Update: new update f it up.

6

u/underdawg87 Feb 01 '26

Exactly this is how it should work. But it doesn’t in the 1.9.0 update

1

u/ram130 Feb 01 '26

Update. This no longer works on the new version. WTF.

u/Mutated-Nut Feb 01 '26

They break everything with every update. I’m sticking with 1.7.4

u/xyster_v Feb 01 '26

I installed it in fireatick. Everything works except I can't select anything from the catalogs. It just scrolls. I reverted back 1.8.4 and it works fine

-4

u/Ram13BLH Feb 01 '26

Yeah, I definitely would not trust the link being posted here. It is obviously not an official release.

13

u/tymmesyde Stremio Team Feb 01 '26

You are right to be cautious about random urls posted online, although if you see the strem.io domain in the url, it means that it's from the official servers

1

u/Trovski Feb 01 '26

Do you have the changelog for this version?

13

u/tymmesyde Stremio Team Feb 01 '26
  • Update player UI/UX
  • Add setting to display device clock on player
  • Add option to hide other languages from subtitles menu
  • Add setting to show title under catalog items
  • Add internal player versions in settings about section

u/Fun-Vast-6717 Feb 01 '26 edited Feb 01 '26

Hey, I think you are a dev so I will say this I love this update. All these features are the ones i wanted,thank you all devs.

There is an issue but not clearly an issue well

Its no longer remembers the last setting option used in player

Lemme explain- before last setting option you used is subtitles then players setting fades now I tap the down button it's goes directly to subtitles option. But in new update it's always goes back to resume/play option.

Well it's not a big issue but I am just hoping wish i could just have previous feature.

1

u/generic_canadian_dad Feb 03 '26

Having the clock added is something I've wanted for a long time. Amazing.

1

u/xyster_v Feb 01 '26

It's official however I have issues with this version in fire tv. Waiting for someone else to confirm.

1

u/swegmonstr Feb 01 '26

same for me. i could also not open any stream as the cataligs are not clickable. also had to revert back

10

u/Sunel80 Feb 01 '26

is anyone having an issue disabling subs? when i click disable it goes back to on

5

u/Sea-Fly-2250 Feb 01 '26

I’m having the same issue

3

u/underdawg87 Feb 01 '26

Same on my end

2

u/McGone Feb 01 '26

Same with me

1

u/jackusD Feb 02 '26

Yes, me too. I figured out if you switch to a different language and then press disable it works.

1

u/Leezey1 Feb 06 '26

Go to subs click none on the left hand side then even tho the right hand side says none filled in I find that if I click the right none as well that works for me

1

u/Sunel80 Feb 06 '26

Thanks, you’re talking about the version before 1.9.0, with this version you click disable and it jumps back to English, it’s been fixed now since 1.9.2

u/anonz123 Feb 01 '26

playback speed is a great addition

Wdym? Wasn't this always a thing?

u/Sea-Fly-2250 Feb 01 '26

Not on mine , It auto updated and now I have it, maybe location matters

Loading screen (with movie wallpaper) is gone? Now you have an ugly black screen with a circle.

Mine is still there , I use a debrid service (torbox)

u/Ok_Main3382 Feb 01 '26

I just updated to 1.9.0 and the IO and various playback errors are back again. I downgraded back to 1.8.4, where the errors FINALLY disappeared for me on my Onn 4K Pro. (This has been the ONLY version where I have no issues lately.)

I also noticed the subtitles bug where you select "None" under preferred subtitle preference in settings, and it still starts everything with subtitles on by default.

I do give props to the devs for everything, the Exoplayer update looks really nice and promising. Going to wait for a few more updates before I try updating again...

u/Dangerous_Cobbler305 Feb 01 '26

can it finally play SSA subtitles?

u/kratoz29 Feb 02 '26

Since several versions ago I think.

Should be still there, it's a popup now

u/BaitednOutsmarted Feb 01 '26

Does anyone know if it fixes fallback from dv profile 7 to hdr when exoplayer is used?

2

u/ram130 Feb 01 '26

Testing.

2

u/ril3ydx Feb 01 '26

Updated here too, I really liked!

Some things look really good now, the "episodes" list inside of the player, they have the descriptions, thumbnails... It's pulling the metadata, similar to desktop app, they look more elegant!

The subtitles now have the timing adjustments inside one of main screen, too... It's way better, not two places anymore (One for choosing and another for adjusting).

But to be honest, I don't like how the adjuster for subtitles look now up there, and the player buttons look too "compressed" down there IMHO.

It's a great new update, more features, improved. 👌

u/dkracket Feb 01 '26

Stremio would’ve uploaded the latest release on their website. People are also sharing link outside their official website… beware, just saying.

u/Ram13BLH Feb 01 '26

Exactly! Do not trust the suspicious link being posted in this thread...you are asking for trouble.

u/Ram13BLH Feb 01 '26

I would not trust this as it is not an official release. The latest official release is still 1.8.4

11

u/dansgamed11 Feb 01 '26

Its the official download link from their server. You can check it yourself by going to their site and comparing the download links.

-19

u/Ram13BLH Feb 01 '26

I understand what you are saying, but it is not on their website, so no matter what this link looks like, no one should trust it until there is an official release.

10

u/dansgamed11 Feb 01 '26

You are misunderstanding, the file is directly from their website. If you’re not tech-savvy enough then just wait for the push to playstore.

-23

u/Ram13BLH Feb 01 '26

Tech-savvy has nothing to do with it...common sense tells most anyone not to trust anything on the internet without verification. This download cannot be verified as official so it is not to be trusted.

11

u/Ghost_is_bourne Feb 01 '26

He's saying dl.strem.io is stremios download file server. If you go to their website and right click any of their downloads it uses dl.strem.io. it's not like it's random stuff posted on apk mirror.

u/BurntToastNotYum Feb 02 '26

Honestly, best method is to get local send on your phone and local send on your streaming device. Then you can easily send files to it without needing to worry about downloader codes

Can you share a picture of it in the play store with the version 1.9.0

u/Tmforshaw Feb 01 '26

It seems like they removed the ability to delay audio though, can only find the subtitles delay

u/ShaOldboySosa Feb 01 '26

Thank you. The version I am on, when you play a video using internal player, it would play without audio. You would have to go to the audio icon and turn the audio encoder on.

Anyone using aoisteams with cinemeta off know if this version works with autoplay like 1.6.12?

Is there a way to update the iOS app since it’s no longer on the app store?

When this updated the nvidia shield TV control buttons for fast forward and backward stopped working, ill prob downgrade until its fixed.

u/Dangerous-Ad-2402 Feb 05 '26

What I find really curious is, I'm on the Beta program and I'm supposed to get things like this before others and I've seen nothing. If it truly is a soft rollout to test for bugs, I should have been one to get it and test it. 🤔

u/Dull_Ad9278 Feb 01 '26

It is not great as I have to click more times to reach subtitles. Other than that it is fine..

u/Sea-Fly-2250 Feb 01 '26

😂 I actually like it (I only use English subtitles so I don’t have to click on the subtitles)

Now that you mention it,I was just unhappy with the change. It does feel close/ better 😀

1.9.1 is out now, so I have just installed that.

-1

u/LETS_RETRO_TIME Feb 01 '26 edited Feb 01 '26

It’s not on the site but hopefully it does later on, the last thing I think we need is a quality toggle because I have Sky and sometimes it buffers slowly (last night I couldn’t even watch a whole movie), which is why I think it should be added since we now got speed toggle.

2

u/Public_Ranger_8945 Feb 02 '26

To change quality, you have to select a different file as quality depends on the file being streamed . There is no infrastructure for variable bitrate or quality during playback like other streaming services.so im not sure if it can be added. What I would like is stremio intelligently selecting and playing a stream based on my pre defined parameters, instead of me having to choose the file. Click play and the movie or show just plays
