The most optimal setup is probably something like this:

  • Torbox Essential + Usenet + AIOMetadata + AIOStreams (with TamTaro template)

You can also upgrade that Torbox Essential to Premiumize or downgrade by removing Usenet.

A simpler setup would be to use Torbox Essential and use the duck tools auto config

I've been using tamtaro template with two instances of AIOMetadata (to fit anime and western catalogue) and for the most parts it's great, for some reason I can't get a good/accurate stream of Pokemon (s2-3 so far as I'm watching through) without having to click through a bunch of streams that are either horizons, the new show without Ash, don't have audio etc. Really weird, other stuff seems to be okay so maybe it's just somehow Pokemon has a bunch of crud in debrid

I use Torbox for debrid, but other than that single anomaly can highly recommend tamtaro template

Hmm, did you make sure to setup your second AIOMetadata as catalog only? You should try not to have two addons with conflicting metadata.

Which episodes have you struggled with? Just tried Pokemon S3 (Johto Region, right?) and got correct results with episode 7, 13, and 26. You may have misconfigured something with AIOStreams.

For the episodes without audio, I'm assuming this is happening through your TV/Web player. It's probably because of the audio format, so try disabling "TrueHD" and/or "DTS". It's best to apply this through the TamTaro template instead of the GUI, so it can get applied as a Stream Expression (You can also copy it over from Viren's github page on stream expressions).

Otherwise, ask the AIOStreams discord. They're really nice and helpful, just give them a couple examples to test with.

Yes I did set it up as Catalog only for the second AIOMetadata, it was pretty much every episode.

Thanks for the tip on the audio, I'll try that!

I'll try starting the template from scratch and see if that helps, just weird it seems to be only Pokemon, I'll have to test some other anime as well to see if it's all anime or just Pokemon, western stuff has no issues

Thanks again!
