Hey, I just published a self-hosted streaming service, it’s called Odin. Odin comes in two parts, a server and an Android app. Both can be found on GitHub, with their install instructions.
Odin Server https://github.com/ad-on-is/odin-server
Odin TV App https://github.com/ad-on-is/odin-tv
Motivation:
I’ve used many of the readily available apps in the past, and they all came with their pros and cons. I was mostly annoyed by the fact, that most of them use their own server-backend, somewhere. So each time, the app stops working, I didn’t know whether their server just crashed, or the developer abandoned the app and I had to look for something else. I also started becoming paranoid, whether someone was collecting my data and offering them to “the highest bidder”. Oh, and I also disliked the UI of these apps.
That’s why I started working on Odin. In fact, I’ve been using it for almost 4 years now, and did a LOT of iterations during these years. Now, I’m more than happy with the end result, and wanted to share it with the world.
The main features of Odin are:
- Discovering movies and TV shows
- A nice and beautiful UI
- Customizable Trakt lists
- Multi-User support
I hope you like it!
Oh, and feel free to submit any feature requests or issues on GitHub. If you want, you can star the repo, so I know there’s actual interest in the project.

I think to most people asking how this works, the answer is, you connect it to AllDebrid/RealDebrid paid accounts, and that’s the contents you stream. Hence it’s a streamer system for a paid service. I think this is the most important clarification needed here.
So it’s like Seren, but for Android instead of Kodi, and with a mandatory server part?
Whats the main difference with Jellyfin?
This only works with a paid pirate service.
So are you leaching and not seeding?
Can this play back my local media collection or is it just a debrid proxy frontend?
no local media collection.
Well that’s disappointing
I know, right? I too wanted to watch your local media!
Interesting. Will have to take a look at it later. I currently use Jellyfin and don’t have many issues. The only thing that might be a pain point is tuner support. I didn’t see anything mentioned. But looks nice otherwise. And intrigued to see its largely in Go.
Jellyfin uses the *arr suite, but Odin relies on a debrid service. The benefit is that nothing is hoarded on the device itself.
Is it possible to self host a debrid?
Nice!
Is there any way this could be modified for indie musicians to move away from bigTech? FOSS Spotify alternative with bitcoin ?
