When this is the case, I only select a TORRENT vs CACHED stream if no cached streams of the quality I desire are available.Īre RD streams unwatchable or ALL streams? Generally this isn't useful as it can take hours for a download to finish (or sometimes minutes).

If you have enabled RD via Gaia, and select a non cached torrent file (indicated by TORRENT), your RD account will be notified by KODI and will start to download the file on your behalf - and once finished, will stream to your Gaia / Kodi. If it finds the movie/show you're looking to stream as a cached file (indicated by CACHED), it will immediately start streaming the file to you from that premium service, which we know is capable of achieving max speed, so this is an excellent viewing experience (no buffering etc., even for super high quality files, even 4K).īy default, Gaia will show you NON cached torrents as well. Within Gaia, it searches these cached repositories if you enable access to your Real-Debrid or other premium services accounts.

In the event that one of their users hasn't already downloaded it, I can tell RD to download the torrent for me, and once its ready download direct to my PC, such that my own personal network connection and computer is not actually doing any of the torrenting, which is advantageous for users who might be worried about torrenting in their location for policy or legal reasons. Without mention of Kodi, when using RD, I can download via HTTPS a file from them that I normally would have torrented, and it maxes our my internet connection (so I get it VERY fast). When you subscribe to their service, you gain access to files they or their users have already cached or downloaded (or torrented), directly.

An example of a premium service is Real-Debrid ( )
