The Elementum add-on uses BitTorrent to stream movies and TV shows, and it doesn’t stream them directly from a specific server like other add-ons. BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing protocol that uses both the download and upload bandwidth. With Elementum you can watch content online or download it to your storage and watch it offline.
Elementum is supported for the following platforms: Android, macOS, Linux and Windows, and each platform has its installation file. It replaces the popular Quasar add-on, which is no longer maintained.
You will also need to install Elementum Burst, which allows Elementum to search different providers and find streams according to the query given by the user.
