Hosted Remux: a complete streaming stack built on the Jellyfin-compatible media server that streams on demand instead of building a download library first, with AIOStreams and your provider accounts included.

What is Remux?

Remux is a media server that speaks the Jellyfin API, so the Jellyfin apps you already use on mobile, TV, and web connect to it as if it were Jellyfin itself. Instead of importing a library of downloaded files, Remux resolves streams on demand from WebDAV shares, HTTP addon sources, and local storage, transcoding on the fly when a client needs it.

Remux does not provide media. It orchestrates user-supplied sources: your WebDAV shares, your addon sources, and your own files.

What's Included

This subscription is a bundle, not just the server:

• Remux, the Jellyfin-compatible media server, streaming direct with no transcoding.
• AIOStreams, which supplies the Stremio addon sources Remux resolves and plays. Remux is a player and library for addon content, so this is the piece that feeds it, and it is included rather than optional.
• Debridge, the ElfHosted multi provider debrid gateway. Bring your own provider keys as well if you prefer.
• TorBox Essential, a bundled third party debrid account.
• Usenet Essential, a bundled third party Usenet provider account.

No separate signups and no second bill. Everything arrives wired together with your subscription.

Experimental Early Preview

Remux is an experimental Early Preview app. The upstream project is young and fast-moving, so expect rough edges, rapid change, and occasional breakage while it matures.

Torrent and P2P functionality is not supported. The ElfHosted build removes the torrent engine entirely at build time: magnet links are rejected and no peer-to-peer connections are possible. Use WebDAV, HTTP addon, and local sources only.

Direct play only - no transcoding. Streams go straight from their source to your player, which keeps playback fast and your instance lean, but your device must decode the format natively. Native Jellyfin apps (TV, mobile, desktop) play nearly everything including HEVC and 4K; web browsers need AVC/H.264 streams. Picking an incompatible stream shows a short explainer video with guidance instead of an error.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Remux a Jellyfin fork?
No. Remux is its own server that implements the Jellyfin API, so Jellyfin clients can connect to it. It streams from configured sources on demand rather than serving an imported library.

Does Remux include media?
No. The subscription is for managed Remux hosting. You bring your own sources and are responsible for what you configure.

Can I use torrents or magnet links?
No. The hosted build has the torrent engine removed entirely. Magnet and torrent requests are rejected, and no P2P connections are possible.

Does Remux transcode?
No. Hosted Remux is direct play only. Use a native Jellyfin app for the widest format support, or choose AVC/H.264 streams when watching in a browser.

Why is Remux marked experimental?
Upstream Remux is young and moves quickly. ElfHosted offers it as an Early Preview so enthusiasts can try it, with the understanding that things may change or break between releases.

Why is AIOStreams part of this?
Remux plays and organises content from Stremio addons, and AIOStreams is what provides those addon sources. Bundling it means the stack works the moment it provisions, rather than after you have gone and assembled the other half yourself.

Can I switch another ElfHosted subscription to Remux?
Yes. Remux is available in the Switch Your Subscription product.

How do I use Remux with AIOStreams?

You hand Remux your AIOStreams manifest URL as an addon source, and Remux builds libraries from it. The two arrive together here: this subscription includes an AIOStreams instance, Debridge, and bundled TorBox and Usenet provider accounts, so there is nothing to sign up for separately and nothing to wire across two providers. Remux is not limited to one addon either. It takes several Stremio manifests at once, alongside WebDAV shares and your own files.

Remux, or a plain AIOStreams instance?

Both play in Jellyfin apps, so the question is what else you get. JellyStreams, in the AIOMagic Bundle or the Stremio Addons Bundle, is a household layer: profiles, kids libraries, screen time and push notifications. Remux is a media server, and what it buys you is breadth:

• 👥 Real users: Remux keeps its own user database, so a household gets accounts rather than one shared login, each with its own watch state and continue-watching row. Import users and their data from an existing Jellyfin server to get started.
• 🗂️ Libraries that are rules: build one from tags, catalogs, popularity, release year and more, and it keeps itself current. Layer per-user content exclusions on top and each account sees a different, scoped library from the same sources.
• 🔌 More than one source: several Stremio addons at once, WebDAV shares, and local folders from your storage mounts, all in the same library.
• 🎵 Music on its own pipeline, including remote sources, rather than bolted onto the addon path.
• 🎚️ Track selection from real data: probe data from RemuxDB, so audio and subtitle tracks come from actual codec and language information instead of a guess at the release name.
• 🛠️ A dashboard: sources, libraries, users and playback all managed in one admin UI.

What Remux does not have is screen time or push notifications, so a family choosing between Remux and the AIOMagic Bundle is really choosing between breadth of sources and depth of household controls. And if none of this describes a problem you have, a plain AIOStreams subscription is the better buy and the difference stays in your pocket. Side by side: Stremio in Jellyfin apps.
