What is Real Debrid on Kodi & FireStick and why do you need it?

Real Debrid is a premium link generator.

If you use FireStick apps or Kodi addons, you must have noticed that most of them generate multiple free streaming links.

You click one of the links to watch the movie or episode.

However, the free links are often not reliable are usually of low-quality.

Real Debrid gives you access to several high-resolution and better-performing streaming links.

It makes your streaming experience a lot more enjoyable.

Benefits of Real Debrid:

• Higher quality/higher resolution links
• Links from fast servers. Reduce buffering considerably
• Reliable links that offer considerably better performance than the free links
• Offers torrent streaming
• Works with several FireStick APKs and Kodi addons

How to sign up for Real Debrid (Pricing & Signup steps)

First, we take a look at the Real Debrid price plans; next, we go through the signup process.

Set up Real Debrid on Kodi

Make sure you install the addon with which you want to use Real Debrid before following the setup steps below.

Method 1: Set Up Real Debrid on Kodi from Within the Addon

Most Kodi addons have a built-in option to set up and authorize Real Debrid from within.

You just need to find the right option within the addon settings.

Note: If the addon does not have a built-in Real Debrid option, go to the next section for set up steps.

I am going to use The Crew and the Diamond Shadow addons to show you how to set up Real Debrid.

Follow these steps:

1. From the home screen of Kodi, go to Add-ons > Video add-ons to access all your installed addons

Now, click and open the desired addon (I am opening The Crew Kodi addon)

2. Next, find the option such as Tools or Settings and click it

3. Click ResolveURL: Settings

4. When the following popup appears, click Universal Resolvers on the left

5. Now, on the right, scroll down to the Real-Debrid section

Set the Priority value at 90

Next, click (Re)Authorize My Account

6. A popup should appear with the Real Debrid authorization code

Note down the code

The code typically expires in 120 seconds (2 minutes)

7. Go to real-debrid.com/device on a PC or smartphone

Sign in with your Real Debrid account if you haven’t already

Enter the authorization code from Kodi (previous step)

Click Continue

8. Once Real Debrid has been authorized successfully, you should see the confirmation saying, “Application allowed, you can close this page”

9. Back on Kodi, you should see the confirmation in the top-right corner saying, “Real-Debrid Resolver Authorized.”

This is how you set up Real Debrid on a Kodi addon.

However, the steps may vary across addons. For instance, take a look at the set-up steps for the Diamond Shadow addon:

1. On the main screen of the Diamond Shadow Kodi addon, click Settings

2. Now, click Debrid/General in the left menu

On the right, make sure the option Enable Debrid Service is enabled

Click Re-auth Real-Debrid

3. A popup is displayed with the Real Debrid authorization code

Note this code down

Again, go to real-debrid.com/device and enter this authorization code like before

Method 2: Set Up Real Debrid on Kodi Globally

If you can’t find the Real Debrid authorization option within the addon settings, you can set it up globally.

Note: If you have already set up Real Debrid with the desired addon, you may not need to follow these steps

You will need to set up Real Debrid on Kodi with one of (or both) the following dependencies:

1. Resolve URL
2. URLResolver

Here are the steps:

1. Choose the gear icon  in the top-left corner of your Kodi home screen for Settings

2. Open System

3. Select Advanced (bottom-left section)

4. Click Add-ons > Manage Dependencies (it will not appear until you choose ‘Advanced’ in the previous step)

5. Scroll down and click ResolveURL

💡If you don’t see ResolveURL, skip to step-14

6. Choose Configure

7. Highlight the tab Universal Resolvers in the menu

8. In the middle section, go down and select the section Real Debrid

First, set the priority value to 90

9. Next, hit (Re)Authorize My Account

10. You will now see this prompt with the Real Debrid authorization code

11. Visit real-debrid.com/device

Type the code that you see on the prompt above

Click Continue

💡You may need to sign in with the Real Debrid login/account you created if you aren’t already

12. Upon successful authorization, Kodi will display the following confirmation in the upper-right corner

13. Repeat the steps 1 to 4 (where you clicked Manage Dependencies)

14. Click URLResolver

💡If you don’t see URLResolver and you have already followed the steps 1 to 12 successfully, no need to proceed further

15. Follow steps 6 to 12

How to use Real Debrid on Kodi

Just use the addon as usual and you will find several new, premium streaming links.

Real Debrid is supported on a range of FireStick APKs including Cinema HD, Nova TV, CyberFlix HD, and more.

You need to set up Real Debrid on each app individually. However, the set-up process is almost the same for all the apps.

Here is what you need to do:

1. Open the Cinema HD app and navigate to the upper-left section

Click the hamburger menu or the 3-line menu

2. Click Settings on the menu

3. Click Account on the next window

4. Scroll down and click Login to Real-Debrid

💡 Keep scrolling until you see Real Debrid

6. Now, open the browser on your phone or computer and visit https://real-debrid.com/device

Type in the code on your FireStick screen and click Continue

7. Wait for a few moments

The Real Debrid login status would change to ‘Authorized’
