Hi @imtariksaeed , thanks for the report! Can you try deleting the cookies for deflix.tv in your browser and try it again, or do it in a private browser window (which starts without cookies)?

i have done this on PC and now when i have clicked on authorize button i get this screen

does this mean, that it is already authorized?

[doingodswork]

Yes exactly.

It should work fine when you click install, or if that doesn't work then after clicking install there's a text field on the webpage with the addon URL including some data for connecting to your RealDebrid account, which you can copy and then paste into the addon search box in Stremio.

Let me know if it doesn't work.

well addon is installed, but i am getting very few links (2 to 6), i have tried with different movies and shows. In addition links have no information, i mean i have other addon installed and links generated by that add on have a bit of information, like movie/show name, size, codec etc.

The Deflix addon currently groups all found streams into quality groups: 720p, 1080p, 2160p and each with 10bit. So when it finds 5 torrents that are all 720p, it shows a single 720p stream. This is on purpose, so that 1. the user doesn't have to go through one or two dozen of results, which all are very similar, and 2. for legal reasons on the hosting side.
And when showing a single stream item for several torrents, it can't show the specific codec or size, because although it determines the instant availability on the debrid service beforehand, the debrid response could be an error for one of the grouped items, so Deflix just picks the next one.
To illustrate: Deflix finds a 720p XviD, 720p h264 and a 720p h265 stream. The debrid service indicates instant availability for the h246 and h265 one. Deflix then shows these two as a single 720p item. Now the user clicks on the stream and it turns out there's an issue with the h264 one, so Deflix then plays the h265 one.
Does it make sense?
Regarding the movie/show name (so just the title, no size/codec etc info), it's the one that the user picks in the Stremio catalog, so I'm not sure if that adds value to repeat it in the stream items.

P.S.: I'm thinking about adding an option to show all individual torrents including their full info when running deflix-stremio locally, so when self-hosting it. Then it can be an option for users that explicitly want that (while other users can keep it simple), while also not being a legal issue on the hosting side. This has actually been on my backlog for quite a while already.
Would that help? Do you run deflix-stremio locally?

[imtariksaeed]

ok. thanks for your clarification in detail. Actually apps that i have used previously with real debrid did not have such an option, so i did not know this grouping thing, that is why i am confused. Your clarification has cleared the confusion.
yes i run it locally.

Hello, there are some issues with the infrastructure again and I plan to rework it from the ground up, which will take a bit of time and effort. Sorry for that! Self-hosting the addon on a local PC should still work as always.
