A bottomless Plex library that doesn't fill your drive.

Browse Stremio catalogs on your Mac and watch in Plex on every device. Add a movie and it appears in your library. It streams from your Real-Debrid account while you watch.

StreamBridge's movie wall in the Mac app

Your Plex library, without the storage.

Browse Stremio movie and series catalogs in the Mac app and add what you want to watch. It shows up in your Plex library. Each catalog you follow becomes a Plex collection that updates itself, so on the TV you browse it in Plex, with the app and remote you already use.

Nothing is downloaded ahead of time. StreamBridge finds a stream when you add a title and fetches the video as Plex plays it. If a link expires mid-movie, it gets a new one. There's no server to rent, no account to create, and nothing to install on your TV.

You need a Plex server and a Real-Debrid account. A Mac mini next to the Plex server makes a good always-on home for it.

Subtitles, before you press play.

Pick one or two languages on a movie. StreamBridge finds the subtitle made for that release, checks its timing against the film's audio, and translates it if nobody has made one in your language. The file is saved where Plex finds it, so it works in every Plex app. With two languages, both appear on screen at once.
