I've been using Stremio for about a year now and have been very happy with it, if I had an Rpi I'd definitely give this a try.

Is it a fork of something? I'm surprised it's coming out of the blue

I don't know it's not, but it's been around a while, if coming out of the blue it wasn't recent.

Used it for 2 weeks, shows, movies kept buffering even though it's supposed to use BitTorrent. Switched back to popcorn time, no issues since.

They state: "While the Raspberry Pi 5 is fully capable of smooth 4K playback, Raspberry Pi 4 will not be able to play 4K content due to hardware limitations."

This likely depends on the codec. The Pi 4’s BCM2711 SoC, unlike the BCM2712 in the Pi 5, has hardware support for H.265 (HEVC) up to 4Kp60. However, the Pi 5 can still support H.265 (HEVC) up to 4Kp60 through software-based decoding, thanks to its more powerful CPU and GPU.
