MyStremio 2.1.3 Update – A customized Stremio shell client
Hi everyone!
Over the past weeks I've been working on MyStremio, a personalized Windows desktop client built on the Stremio shell stack. It started as a fun personal project and gradually evolved into something I'd like to share with the community. This is my 2nd, more detailed, post as my latest update 2.1.3 is now live.
Disclaimer:
- MyStremio is an independent community project and is not affiliated with official Stremio.
- MyStremio wouldn't exist without other amazing community projects including Stremio-Enhanced, Stremio-Glass-Theme and StreamGo. Check out their projects with the links in the Credits section at the bottom!!!
How MyStremio differs from official Stremio
- Built-in UI and navigation enhancements (including a Glass Theme and a custom settings area)
- Improved player tooling (hover timestamp, TheIntroDB/auto-skip options, controllable preload behavior)
- Better stream organization and metadata presentation (enrichment panels and cleaner stream UI behavior)
- Integrated Cinebye management (manage addons, optional Cinemeta disable)
- Custom library groups with JSON import/export
- Additional power-user options such as plugin/theme toggles and Discord Rich Presence
- Packaged as a ready-to-use single installer

FEATURES
1) Board hero home view
The board offers a modern hero section created by Fxy6969.
2) Hover metadata in catalogs
While browsing catalogs, hover cards show key information (plot, genres, cast) without forcing a page change.
3) Detail view with metadata and stream sidebar
The detail page combines metadata, cast, similar titles, and an extended stream/provider sidebar in one view.
4) Cinebye Addon Manager
Cinebye integrated so you can manage addons inside Stremio and optionally disable specific sources (for example Cinemeta).
5) Favorite subtitle and audio languages
Inside player settings, you can define favorite subtitle and audio languages that act as your preferred language pool. This preference layer is used by the quick language actions shown below.
6) Quick Select language shortcuts
Quick Select reads your favorites and exposes them as one-click subtitle/audio buttons, so switching language is fast and consistent during playback.
7) Settings: themes and plugins
Themes and plugins can be managed directly from settings, including quick access to the themes/plugins folders.
8) Settings: preload, library backup, Discord
Inside Settings → MyStremio, you get central controls for buffer/preload, library export/import, and Discord Rich Presence.
Credits
MyStremio is mostly based on and inspired by the following independent projects:
- REVENGE977 / stremio-enhanced
- Fxy6969 / Stremio-Glass-Theme
- Bo0ii / StreamGo
Many of the ideas and features in MyStremio were inspired by these projects, and their work helped shape this custom build. Huge thanks to everyone involved for sharing their work with the community.
Feedback
This started as a fun personal project and is improved iteratively.
If you find reproducible bugs, have feature requests, or simply want to share feedback, I'd love to hear it.
