Seanime Extensions
A guide on using AIOStreams in Seanime.
AIOStreams comes with three extensions that integrate directly with Seanime. This guide covers what each extension does and how to install it.
Extensions
AIOStreams Plugin
The recommended extension for most users. It uses Seanime's plugin system to add a dedicated results panel that preserves all your AIOStreams sorting and formatting exactly as configured. You can open the panel from a variety of triggers; by default it adds an AIOStreams tab alongside the standard Torrent Streaming / Online Streaming / Debrid Streaming tabs.
Supports any URL or P2P-based stream (debrid and usenet included). Stremio NNTP streams are not supported.
Requires the Search API. Instances that disable it (e.g. the Public ElfHosted Instance) cannot be used with this extension.
AIOStreams Torrent Provider
Adds AIOStreams as a torrent provider inside Seanime's Torrent Streaming / Debrid Streaming tab. Only the torrents surfaced by AIOStreams are used - any debrid configured in AIOStreams itself is ignored. Seanime's own debrid support handles debrid playback.
Requires the Search API. Instances that disable it (e.g. the Public ElfHosted Instance) cannot be used with this extension.
This extension was developed before the Plugin system supported torrent streaming. Now that it does, the Torrent Provider may be deprecated in a future release. The AIOStreams Plugin is preferred.
Stremio Custom Source
Exposes a Stremio addon catalogue as a Seanime custom source — useful for anime catalogues as well as standard movie/series ones. It does not provide streams on its own; pair it with the AIOStreams Plugin, which can serve streams for any custom source.
Installation
Configure AIOStreams as normal (e.g. using the setup guide).
On the Save & Install page, under the Other Apps section, click Seanime.
Then follow the steps for your extension:
Copy the Manifest URL shown at the top of the Seanime pop-up.
In Seanime, go to Extensions → Add Extensions. Paste the URL next to Install from URL and click Find.
Once found, install it and then click Grant → Grant permissions to approve the required permissions.
To adjust settings, click the Preferences icon (to the left of the three-dot menu) on the extension card. Available options include preferred player (built-in, desktop, or external link), search ID (IMDb or Kitsu), auto-play behaviour, and which triggers to show.
Copy the Manifest URL for the AIOStreams Torrent Provider shown on the Seanime pop-up.
In Seanime, go to Extensions → Add Extensions. Paste the URL next to Install from URL and click Find, then install.
A single Custom Source Extension in Seanime is limited to one list, so each catalogue gets its own extension instance.
Under Stremio Custom Source, click Configure.
Enter a Stremio addon manifest URL to import catalogues from. If your catalogues are already in AIOStreams, click Continue without changing the pre-filled URL. Otherwise, replace it with another addon's manifest URL (e.g. your AIOMetadata URL) before continuing.
Review the detected catalogues, select the ones you want, optionally rename them, then click Continue with X catalogues.
Copy the resulting JSON (in the format {"urls": ["url1", "url2", ...]}).
In Seanime, go to Extensions → Add Extensions. Paste the JSON to the left of Import from repository and click Import all. Scroll to the bottom and click Install all.
If you want to uninstall a lot of these custom sources at once, rather than doing this individually in Seanime, which can become quite
cumbersome, you can delete the relevant stremio-custom-source-******.json files under the extensions folder in your Seanime data directory.
