This guide covers using Tori without keeping a local library — streaming torrents directly, using a debrid service, or watching via online-streaming extensions.
Tori can stream a torrent directly to the player without waiting for the full download to finish.
- Go to Settings → Torrent Streaming and enable it.
- Choose a backend:
- Built-in (BitTorrent) — streams directly, no third-party account needed.
- TorBox / Real-Debrid / AllDebrid / Premiumize — enter your API key/token for the provider under its section. Debrid services generally give faster, more consistent streams than raw BitTorrent.
- Install a torrent-search extension from the Extension Marketplace so Tori has sources to search.
If you'd rather download than direct-stream, connect a downloader under Settings → Torrent Client:
- qBittorrent / Transmission (self-hosted)
- Torbox, Real-Debrid, AllDebrid, or Premiumize (cloud-based)
Under Settings → Extensions, browse the marketplace for online-streaming source extensions. Once installed, matching episodes will show a streaming source option alongside (or instead of) local/torrent options.
- Streaming performance depends heavily on your chosen provider/source and your own connection.
- Tori does not host or provide any of this content — extensions and providers are third-party and unaffiliated with the project.
- Streaming — full provider configuration reference
- Auto Downloader
- Remote Access — if you want to reach this setup from outside your home network
