Hurricane Milton power kept glitching. Firstick would not attempt network connection. Had to reset.
After reset Xplore would not set up Dropbox connection.
So back to hunting everything down.
Xplore to wifi file share and copy my apks to the Firestick was easy. View a short ad.

Things are a little hit and miss right now.
I finally gave in and set up Stremio. Wow
I'm not sure why Syncler is so miserable right now and others seem glitchy also.
Troypoint's App has a lot if not most of what you need.
For instance Smart YouTube no longer stops ads but Troy has the new one.
Stremio Setup
Install Stremio on PC (It's work but well worth the time)
Set up a logon and password with some email account
Search for Torrentio addon
configure it first before installing
Set up RealDebrid (easy, just get the api)
remove some of the addons, remove camera links, sort by seeders, limit 15GB
now install Torrentio
Can't remember why I said this but could be alternative to setting up on PC first. Sounds like doing the setup strictly on the streaming device.
Open TVBro & Go to
https://torrentio.strem.fun/
Make obvious choices
It will start Stremio and install torrentio extension.
So, after you have installed Stremio on the PC . . .
Install Stremio on streaming device
Just log in to Stremio account and it will sync
Firestick may not sync Torrentio with RD api so if you need to check validity
go the the Torrentio addon setting and view the api key
Log into your RD account with any pc. Then go to https://real-debrid.com/apitoken
Next alter the api in the Torrentio settings to match.
Shield is ARM64 available on PlayStore
Firestick 4K is ARM64 but may only use 32 (This is how Kodi works)
Once you log on you can sync your extensions-addons
Once you set up Stremio on one device the other devices are simple. Just activate and it's all done.
** On a new install it may take awhile for the series/episode list to populate. It will only display the first unwatched of the series. It seems to populate correctly over time.
