Troubleshooting A source doesnt start
With The next source if one doesn't start on (the default), StremioK tries the next one on its own ("Didn't start: trying the next source (2 of 4)…"), up to 3 more.
A notice instead of the video. When a source doesn't start, StremioK looks at where its link leads. A debrid addon that can't give the file sends a short notice video the TV won't play; StremioK says what it means, naming the service from the source's tag ([TB⚡]: TorBox, [RD⚡]: Real-Debrid…) and the addon:
| Message | What to do |
|---|---|
| "TorBox refused access (AIOStreams): check its TorBox key in the addon's settings" | Your key in that addon's configuration is wrong or expired. Fix it in the addon's setup page (Configure on the addon). |
| "TorBox: your limit is reached for now" | Your debrid account's limit. Wait, or use another service. |
| "TorBox won't give this file" | The service refuses this file. Try another source. |
| "Still downloading on TorBox: try again later" | The service hasn't got the file yet. Try again later. |
For notices about your account (access refused, a limit), the next source skips that addon's other links through the same service, since they'd say the same.
A few seconds of video, then "not ready yet". Some debrid services answer a file they're still downloading with a short video saying so (Real-Debrid through AIOStreams). A source shorter than 2 minutes is taken for that: it isn't marked watched, and StremioK goes back to the sources. Try again later.
