## Description

Stremio is a free media streaming client that lets you watch your favorite shows and movies by combining your local files with online addons. This all-in-one Docker image bundles stremio-server, ffmpeg, and the web player into a single lightweight Alpine container, so you can self-host a ready-to-use Stremio server with almost no configuration. It is built for homelab users who want a compact Stremio setup that also ships the official web player.

## Common questions

### What single port should I expose for the bundled Stremio server and web player?

Expose port 8080. The web player and server both run behind nginx on that port.

### Can the container work with HTTPS if I access it by IP instead of a domain?

Yes. When you provide an IPADDRESS, it automatically generates and uses SSL certificates. It can also use your own domain and certificates.

### Does the image support GPU-accelerated transcoding?

On Linux, it includes ffmpeg with VAAPI support for Intel and AMD GPUs when the GPU is passed through. On Windows and macOS, transcoding uses the CPU only.

### Can I add simple username/password protection?

Yes. The image supports HTTP Basic Auth to secure the instance with a username and password.
