PVTKRRX

Quick Jumps

Hard rule: Stremio install is HTTPS-first for remote hosts. HTTP loopback (127.0.0.1) is only for same-device local installs.

For the one-command self-host installer, use curl -fsSL https://www.pvtkrrx.cc/install-selfhost.sh | sudo bash. That launcher stays on the hosted site and installs the latest published release payload behind the scenes.

Compatibility Matrix

Whatbox Runbook

Configure Page Fields

1. Install or verify qBittorrent and Prowlarr from the Whatbox Manage Apps panel.
2. On /configure, select Remote Seedbox route and pick Whatbox from the provider dropdown.
3. Fill in the connection fields using your Managed Links HTTPS URLs:

4. Click Test Connection, then Save.

All three URLs above come from Managed Links in the Whatbox panel. If the Managed Link paths differ from the defaults above, use the exact paths shown in your panel.

ssh user@server.whatbox.ca
mkdir -p ~/apps && cd ~/apps
git clone https://github.com/Kepners/pvtkrrx.git
cd pvtkrrx && npm ci --omit=dev
PORT=15000 ENCRYPTION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32) nohup node index.js > pvtkrrx.log 2>&1 &

Ultra.cc Runbook

Configure Page Fields

1. Install qBittorrent and Prowlarr from the Ultra.cc app panel.
2. On /configure, select Remote Seedbox and pick Ultra.cc from the provider dropdown.
3. Fill in the connection fields:

4. Click Test Connection, then Save.

Check the exact app paths in your Ultra.cc panel — if the subpaths differ from the defaults above (e.g. a custom Nginx proxy path), use those instead. Run app-ports show over SSH to confirm which ports each app uses.

ssh username@host
bash <(wget -qO- https://scripts.ultra.cc/util-v2/LanguageInstaller/Node-Installer/main.sh)
app-ports free
mkdir -p ~/apps && cd ~/apps
git clone https://github.com/Kepners/pvtkrrx.git
cd pvtkrrx && npm ci --omit=dev
PORT=<free-port> ENCRYPTION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32) nohup node index.js > pvtkrrx.log 2>&1 &

SeedHost Runbook

Configure Page Fields

1. Install qBittorrent and Prowlarr from SeedHost one-click apps.
2. On /configure, select Remote Seedbox and pick SeedHost from the provider dropdown.
3. Fill in the connection fields:

4. Click Test Connection, then Save.

Check the SeedHost control panel for the exact HTTPS app paths. HD1 plans do not have SSH, so use the Remote Seedbox route with hosted PVTKRRX. If your plan cannot expose a clean HTTPS root route for custom apps, use LAN Bridge instead.

if ! grep -qw "PATH=$HOME/bin" ~/.bashrc ; then mkdir -p ~/bin && echo "PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH" >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc ; fi
cd && wget -q https://nodejs.org/dist/v22.14.0/node-v22.14.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
tar xf ~/node-v22.14.0-linux-x64.tar.gz --strip-components=1 -C ~/
rm -f ~/node-v22.14.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
mkdir -p ~/apps && cd ~/apps
git clone https://github.com/Kepners/pvtkrrx.git
cd pvtkrrx && npm ci --omit=dev
PORT=15000 ENCRYPTION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32) nohup node index.js > pvtkrrx.log 2>&1 &

Feral Hosting Runbook

Configure Page Fields

1. Install qBittorrent and Prowlarr from the Feral manager or via user-space install.
2. On /configure, select Remote Seedbox and pick Feral Hosting from the provider dropdown.
3. Fill in the connection fields:

4. Click Test Connection, then Save.

Feral save paths start with /media/ instead of /home/. The preset handles this automatically. If your apps are behind proxypass subpaths, use the exact subpath shown in the Feral wiki.

mkdir -p ~/bin && cd
wget -q https://nodejs.org/dist/v22.14.0/node-v22.14.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
tar xf ~/node-v22.14.0-linux-x64.tar.gz --strip-components=1 -C ~/
rm -f ~/node-v22.14.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
mkdir -p ~/apps && cd ~/apps
git clone https://github.com/Kepners/pvtkrrx.git
cd pvtkrrx && npm ci --omit=dev
PORT=15000 ENCRYPTION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32) nohup node index.js > pvtkrrx.log 2>&1 &

RapidSeedbox Runbook

Configure Page Fields

1. Install qBittorrent and Prowlarr from the RapidSeedbox dashboard (one-click installers on Premium, pre-installed on Lean).
2. On /configure, select Remote Seedbox and pick RapidSeedbox from the provider dropdown.
3. Fill in the connection fields:

4. Click Test Connection, then Save.

Lean plans have no SSH — Remote Seedbox route with hosted PVTKRRX is the only option. Premium plans have SSH and can also self-host PVTKRRX directly. Lean to Premium migration keeps the same provider; switch plan when direct addon hosting becomes needed.

ssh user@<box>.rapidseedbox.com
mkdir -p ~/apps && cd ~/apps
git clone https://github.com/Kepners/pvtkrrx.git
cd pvtkrrx && npm ci --omit=dev
PORT=15000 ENCRYPTION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32) nohup node index.js > pvtkrrx.log 2>&1 &

Bytesized Runbook

Configure Page Fields

1. Install qBittorrent and Prowlarr from the Bytesized app dashboard.
2. On /configure, select Remote Seedbox and pick Bytesized from the provider dropdown.
3. Fill in the connection fields:

4. Click Test Connection, then Save.

Use the Remote Seedbox route with hosted PVTKRRX first. Bytesized Connect is only needed when you control a server with Docker and root access. If your plan does not provide clean routing for custom app root paths, use LAN Bridge instead.

Swizzin Runbook (Own VPS or Swizzin Provider)

Configure Page Fields

1. Install qBittorrent and Prowlarr via Swizzin (box install qbittorrent prowlarr).
2. On /configure, select Remote Seedbox and pick Swizzin from the provider dropdown.
3. Fill in the connection fields using your reverse-proxy HTTPS URLs:

4. Click Test Connection, then Save.

Swizzin URL subpaths depend entirely on your Nginx reverse proxy config. Use the exact paths from your panel. This is the best option for direct hosting since you control root, Nginx, and domain routing.

git clone https://github.com/Kepners/pvtkrrx.git
cd pvtkrrx && npm ci --omit=dev
ENCRYPTION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32) PORT=7000 node index.js

HostingByDesign Runbook

Configure Page Fields

1. Install qBittorrent and Prowlarr via the box command.
2. On /configure, select Remote Seedbox and pick HostingByDesign from the provider dropdown.
3. Fill in the connection fields:

4. Click Test Connection, then Save.

HBD has SSH and box tooling available on app hosting slots, making it a good option for direct PVTKRRX hosting too. If self-hosting, set PVTKRRX_ALLOWED_WEB_ORIGINS to your exact HTTPS origin.

Other Provider Runbook (Generic)

Configure Page Fields

1. On /configure, select Remote Seedbox and leave provider as Custom / Other.
2. Find the following from your provider's control panel and fill them in:

3. Click Test Connection to verify Prowlarr and qBittorrent respond, then Save.

Only use Remote Seedbox when your Prowlarr, qBittorrent, and file server endpoints are intentionally public over HTTPS and authenticated. If any endpoint is not publicly reachable, use PC Local + LAN Bridge and keep the seedbox as backend only.

git clone https://github.com/Kepners/pvtkrrx.git
cd pvtkrrx && npm ci --omit=dev
PORT=7000 ENCRYPTION_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32) node index.js
