  • Onstream vs Cloudstream

    Onstream

    Pros:

    • Much stable
    • Beautiful UI and UX than Cloudstream
    • Can do it’s purpose out of the box (No need to setup like downloading extensions, etc.)

    Cons:

    • Has pop up ad(picture ad not video) every episode but it’s only one and the TV version have none
    • Less features than Cloudstream
    • Have faulty search results you need to complete at least one word in the title, ex.

      • Gretel - will show Hamster & Gretel
    • Have 2 Trackers
      • Google Firebase Analytics
      • Google Crashlytics
    • Proprietary

    Cloudstream

    Pros:

    • More features
    • Free and Open Source Software
    • Much more diverse category like p*rn, documentaries and some Filipino Films thanks to extensions
    • No ads

    Cons:

    • Will exit the video when suffer a meager connection lost, can be a hassle when it do not continue to where it lefts
    • Poor HCI engineered design process
      • UI are confusing sometimes
      • Harder to set up
    • Abandoned?
    • There’s more useless extensions than working ones
    • Has 1 tracker
      • µ?ACRA

    My choice for now is Onstream
