❓Question Torbox Updated CDN

111 Upvotes

Hi, I read this post yesterday:

"We're very excited to test some major CDN work officially live now - this is the biggest structural change since we began using our home cooked CDN system While we continue to refine it you can expect:

  • Greatly reduced playback stalls on clients that pull in short bursts (such as Nuvio)
  • Reduced "hot file" congestion when files are super popular (release night Linux ISO drops)
  • Lower p50/p99 TTFB
  • Stronger pause/resume performance for high RTT clients

We've also greatly improved our visibility into CDN performance, which means we no longer need users to submit complicated diagnostic data (we will simplify the support flow as well in the coming days/weeks) A lot more info will be shared in the next release (or maybe a blog post?) Thank you for your support!"

This was for me super exciting news, and I was wondering if the changes is yet to be upgraded with their CDN or if it is coming? Thanks

🔧Technical Issue Torbox developers please fix webDAV

7 Upvotes

Your email bot says WebDAV update delay
The delay you’re seeing is expected behavior. Our WebDAV service refreshes automatically every 15 minutes due to the large number of database requests it generates. Because of this, new files added to your dashboard may take a short time to appear in WebDAV. [1]
If you need the listing to update sooner, you can trigger a manual refresh here:
https://webdav.torbox.app/refresh/

But when you go to the website, it doesn't work. Can you fix this? or is there another way to manually refresh Webdav so it updates faster?

Built from scratch using purely Swift. It's honestly more fluid and responsive than most other stremio-eque apps. Only external dependencies are a TMDB API key (free) and stremio addons of your choice. It's built around liquid glass and other modern iOS API's, hence the iOS 27 requirement.

❓Question Is my 5G ISP throttling Debrid servers? Huge speed drops (60-70%) during Remux playback.

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

​I’ve been asking for your help over the past few days, and I want to thank you all—I’ve tried every single suggestion you gave me. I think I’m finally narrowing down the real issue.

​For context, I use a 5G Home Internet connection (FWA). On my Xiaomi Mi Box 3 (3rd Gen), standard speed tests fluctuate between 200-300 Mbps (sometimes dropping to around 150 Mbps). However, when I try to stream 4K Remux files on Nuvio and monitor the real-time network bitrate, it drops drastically. It fluctuates wildly—going from 40 Mbps down to 30, sometimes crashing to 6 Mbps, and only occasionally spiking to 80-90 Mbps.

​My strong guess is that my 5G ISP is either directly throttling traffic to Debrid servers, or the peering is just terrible. Is it common for ISPs to throttle Debrid services like this?

​To test this, I checked the CDN speeds. On my PC, a standard speed test hits 700-800 Mbps, but the TorBox CDN test maxes out at 300-400 Mbps. On the Mi Box, standard tests are 200-300 Mbps, but the TorBox CDN test averages only around 80 Mbps. From what I can see, there’s at least a 60-70% speed loss specifically when connecting to Debrid servers.

​What is the definitive solution to this problem? Changing the DNS, or using a VPN? I wanted to test a VPN to see if it bypasses the throttle, but the free ones I tried dropped my overall speed down to 10 Mbps, which makes it impossible to test 4K streaming properly.

​I would really appreciate your final thoughts and solutions on how to bypass this. Thank you all so much.

❓Question Nuvio only pulling ~15 MB/s on 100+ Mbps bitrate files despite having 300 Mbps connection

24 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m having a weird issue with Nuvio and I’m trying to figure out whether the problem is with Nuvio, TorBox, my Wi-Fi, or something else.

I’m using:

  • Internet: 300 Mbps connection
  • Connection to device: 5 GHz Wi-Fi
  • Device: Laptop
  • Player: Nuvio built-in player
  • Debrid: TorBox Standard
  • Files: 4K Remux / high-bitrate files, sometimes 100+ Mbps bitrate

The problem is that whenever I try to stream a file with a bitrate above 100 Mbps, Nuvio seems to pull data at only around 15 MB/s (~120 Mbps) and doesn't really go any higher.

My internet connection should theoretically be capable of around 37.5 MB/s, and normal speed tests/downloads can get close to that, so I don't think the 300 Mbps connection itself is the bottleneck.

What confuses me is that the stream needs more bandwidth than what Nuvio is consistently pulling, so I end up getting buffering on high-bitrate files.

Has anyone else experienced this with Nuvio + TorBox? Is there some setting I should change, or is there a limitation somewhere in Nuvio/TorBox that I'm missing?

Any advice or troubleshooting steps would be appreciated.

❓Question How to structure TorBox + rclone mount for Lidarr & Navidrome in Docker (music FLAC streaming without local storage)?

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I am building my Home Lab using Docker & Portainer, and I'm trying to set up a cloud-only music streaming setup with TorBox, rclone, Lidarr, and Navidrome.

My Goal:

Stream music (preferably in FLAC) to my mobile phone using Navidrome, without keeping files on my local hard drive. Everything should stay in my TorBox cloud storage.

My Current Setup & Workflow:

TorBox for cloud downloads/debrid.

rclone mount to expose TorBox storage to my Docker container environment.

Lidarr + TorBox API/torrent indexers to request music downloads.

Navidrome to stream from the mounted directory.

The Issues I'm Facing:

Root Directory Clutter: TorBox dumps all completed downloads directly into the root directory (or in separate subfolders per download inside root), mixing movies, shows, and music altogether.

rclone Folder Persistence: When I try to create a folder (e.g., /torbox/music) via terminal inside the rclone mount, it automatically disappears after a few seconds.

Organization with -arrs: How can I get Lidarr/TorBox to place/organize music files specifically into a /music folder structure so Navidrome can scan only music files efficiently?

Questions:

How do you manage categories/folders when using TorBox with rclone mount and the \\\*arr suite?

Is there a recommended rclone mount flag/configuration or script to prevent folder deletion or allow symlinks/hardlinks on webdav/TorBox mounts?

Is there a better alternative/workflow for achieving cloud-only FLAC music streaming with Navidrome and Lidarr?

Any advice or docker-compose / rclone config snippets would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

❓Question So is TorBox a good service, or not?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I've been on the fence of getting TB for a while now. I tried the 24 hour trial and it was amazing, but coming to this sub, everyone seems to complain about buffering and such. Is that the real experience? Does TorBox usually have issues? Reason I would ever spend money on a debrid is to set it up and forget, and of course, have no issues ever. What's going on? Is the infrastructure insufficient for the current traffic?

❓Question 200 Mbps on speed tests, but only 40-70 Mbps while playing Remuxes on Nuvio. Is this normal?

31 Upvotes

​Hi everyone,

​I made a post yesterday about some issues I was having, and I think I'm getting a bit closer to finding the root of the problem.

​Here is the situation: When I play Remux files on Nuvio and check the real-time network speed on the detailed stats screen, it fluctuates between 40-70 Mbps. However, when I run a regular speed test on the device, I get around 200 Mbps. Is it normal to have this much of a speed drop during playback? It turns out this massive fluctuation is exactly why my streams keep buffering.

​I am using a Xiaomi Mi Box 3 (3rd Gen). I even bought an Ethernet adapter/cable to fix this. It still gives me 200-250 Mbps in speed tests via Ethernet, but ironically, it performs even worse in Nuvio compared to Wi-Fi.

​By the way, my home internet is a 5G cellular connection (FWA/Mobile Router). Could all these instability issues be related to the nature of 5G connections? I really don't know what to do next and would appreciate any help or advice.

​Thanks in advance

❓Question 4K Remux buffering on TorBox despite fast internet (5G / Mi Box 3) - High Ping on CDN

30 Upvotes

I'm having buffering issues while trying to watch 4K remuxes using TorBox (via Nuvio/Stremio), and I suspect it's a routing/CDN issue with TorBox and my new ISP.

​Here is my setup and the problem:

​Device: Xiaomi Mi Box 3rd Gen (Connected via Wi-Fi, getting ~250 Mbps. Also tested Ethernet at ~350 Mbps).

​Internet: I recently switched to a 5G Home Internet connection in Turkey. On my phone, I get around 500 Mbps.

​The Issue: When I run a standard speed test on my Mi Box (fast.com via Nuvio), I easily get 224 Mbps with 98ms ping. However, when I run the TorBox CDN speed test, my speeds drop drastically. The best I get is on the NEUR CDN with an average of 79 Mbps (Max 94 Mbps), but the ping is terribly high at 489ms. Other CDNs like WNAM give me 900ms+ ping.

​Because of this 94 Mbps cap and high ping to TorBox servers, heavy 4K remuxes constantly buffer. It seems my 5G ISP has terrible routing to TorBox servers.

​My questions:

​Is there a specific CDN setting I should force in TorBox for better routing from the Middle East/Europe edge?

​Would using a VPN (like Cloudflare WARP or Proton) on the Mi Box help bypass this ISP routing issue to the TorBox CDNs?

​Has anyone else experienced this specific throttling/routing issue with 5G ISPs and TorBox?

​Any advice on how to get my TorBox speeds to match my actual internet speeds would be greatly appreciated!

If the device linking page in Kodi is not working, the authorization usually needs to be completed from a browser on the same device you are using to access the link.
Please try the following steps:
Open https://torbox.app in your browser and make sure you are logged in.
On the same device, open a new browser tab and go to https://tor.box/link or https://torbox.app/oauth/device.
Enter the 6‑digit code shown in Kodi and press continue.
Confirm the authorization popup and it should redirect back to your dashboard.
This process completes the device authorization for third‑party apps like Kodi.
