Why tvbox?

You search for a movie and it is not on any streaming platform in your country. Google says it is on MUBI or Amazon Prime, but the link opens to “unavailable in your region.”

tvbox brings the workflow into one place: search → download → Google Drive → Infuse.

Architecture

tvbox architecture: browser to tvbox, download via aria2c, upload to Google Drive, playback via Infuse
  1. Open tvbox in your browser and search for a title.
  2. tvbox finds releases and starts the download.
  3. Completed files move to Google Drive via rclone.
  4. Watch from Infuse on Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
