Hey, I just published a self-hosted streaming service, it’s called Odin.
Odin comes in two parts, a server and an Android app. Both can be found on GitHub, with their install instructions.
I’ve used many of the readily available apps in the past, and they all came with their pros and cons. I was mostly annoyed by the fact, that most of them use their own server-backend, somewhere. So each time, the app stops working, I didn’t know whether their server just crashed, or the developer abandoned the app and I had to look for something else. I also started becoming paranoid, whether someone was collecting my data and offering them to “the highest bidder”. Oh, and I also disliked the UI of these apps.
That’s why I started working on Odin.
In fact, I’ve been using it for almost 4 years now, and did a LOT of iterations during these years. Now, I’m more than happy with the end result, and wanted to share it with the world.
The main features of Odin are:
Discovering movies and TV shows
A nice and beautiful UI
Customizable Trakt lists
Multi-User support
I hope you like it!
Oh, and feel free to submit any feature requests or issues on GitHub. If you want, you can star the repo, so I know there’s actual interest in the project.
Putting such a project on Github is going to be risky, but maybe your case is again one of these where you can argue, you are not supplying the media yourself.
Seeing as this uses RealDebrid, wasn’t there some drama around the service recently? Not a subscriber, so don’t have any direct contact to this, just remember some threads where a company offering the services started giving out user info to the local government.
Yeah… I mean, my stuff doesn’t do anything illegal, at least I hope so.
Ther was some drama indeed, but nothing to worry about, especially if you use a VPN, throw-away emails and bitcoins.
in a nutshell, the French government wasn’t happy about them providing instant links to video files. they then removed a feature from their api, and all seems good again.
