mpv.conffile insideportable_config. - Two builds are provided:
- Stremio Kai — full build with anime enhancement features and all scripts. Two theme flavors included:
- OLED — Pure black, great for OLED displays. Default
- Stremio Flavor — Maintains Stremio's original purple tinted theme.
- Stremio Kai Zero — stripped down build without anime enhancement features but including UI, shortcuts, and notification features.
Known Issues
