  • Stremio Service no longer needed:

    • Now Enhanced runs Stremio streaming server in the background without needing Stremio Service.
    • It uses a more recent version of the streaming server which should fix some playback issues. The latest available release of Stremio Service used version 4.20.8 whereas Enhanced now uses 4.20.11 built-in.
    • This should also fix issues related to needing Stremio Service, such as Playback stops working every few episodes (at least from my testing it did, if you still encounter this issue, feel free to inform me).
    • Enhanced stores Stremio’s streaming server logs in a stremio-server.log file located in its application data directory (~/.config/stremio-enhanced on Linux, ~/Library/Application Support/stremio-enhanced on macOS, and %appdata%/stremio-enhanced on Windows).

  • Improved Discord Rich Presence:

    • Now if you resume playback from the home page directly, it will also update status on Discord and show what you're watching.

  • Explore and try community-made plugins & themes from the app:

    • You can now go to the settings menu and click on the "Community Plugins & Themes" button to easily explore and download available themes and plugins for Stremio Enhanced (not many available right now).
    • The themes and plugins are fetched from Stremio Enhanced Registry. If you're a developer you can submit your work there.

  • Added support for transparent themes:

    • There is a new toggle option in the settings menu. When enabled it will use the transparent flag in Electron to allow transparent themes.
    • Enabling this option might affect performance and a restart is required after enabling it.

  • No longer uses OpenGL on macOS:

    • In the previous version, Enhanced used OpenGL for all platforms (this is done to fix an issue where the audio tracks menu in the video player is unavailable).
    • Enhanced now uses OpenGL on Windows/Linux but not macOS, since OpenGL is not well optimized on macOS and caused performance issues.

    Note: I don't have a mac so I'm not sure if this will introduce more issues. Feel free to report any issues you encounter.

  • Updated Electron to 37:

As always the app isn't signed so if you're on macOS you'll have to bypass Gatekeeper. Signing would cost me 99 USD per year..

To bypass, you should right-click the app and choose “Open” for first time you open the app (instead of double clicking) or run this command in terminal:

xattr -cr /path/to/Stremio.Enhanced.app

or if that doesn't work try this:

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /path/to/Stremio.Enhanced.app

I've only tested this version on Windows and Linux. I don't have a mac and macOS VMs suck.

Edit: Updated mac-unpacked.zip and mac-arm64.zip there was an issue with locating necessary Stremio streaming server files.
