Vavoo is software that allows you to stream your own media or online content on your TV and mobile devices. In this practical tip we show you the best alternatives to Vavoo.
Vavoo - what is it anyway?
Vavoo is media software that uses so-called bundles to add sources for media and can access these sources on various devices to stream them. It is very similar to the principle and appearance of Kodi - and Vavoo can also be used to embed sources from the Internet and thus stream current films easily. But be careful: Many sources should be avoided because streaming video content from unlicensed sources is illegal.
Vavoo alternative Kodi: the all-rounder
Kodi is media player software that gives you access to a huge selection of online sources. This allows you to access media libraries from TV stations, live TV and YouTube, as well as local media and files on your network.
- Vavoo is built almost the same way as Kodi, but in contrast comes preconfigured with some sources. With Kodi you can also add them very easily.
- Apart from the sources, which can also be added to Vavoo, Kodi has an almost infinite selection of different bundles that expand your media library.

Plex automatically searches for all the information you need about a film
Plex is a client-server media player that allows you to access your movie database at home from anywhere. Once Plex is set up, you can add your films and videos, and Plex neatly arranges your films with posters, summaries, directors and actors. Plex now also offers its own online media library with films in English, a few series and documentaries.
- Plex is legal and free. However, some additional functions must be activated with a subscription or a one-time purchase.
- The online media library is free of charge, but advertising blocks are loaded every ten minutes.
- The films do not come from the Internet, but from your hard drive. If you want to add your films, you first have to transfer them to your computer.
- Media libraries can be shared via Plex and streamed via the Internet. You can log in anywhere on the Plex app and have access to your media library at home.
- There are also plugins that can be added to access sources such as YouTube, iTunes and Co. However, the main principle of Plex is to access the media files that you own at home.
- All you need for Plex is a device that you use as a server. All your media files are on this and you can stream from this device to your other devices. A computer or NAS is particularly suitable for this.
Emby: The Plex alternative
Compared to Kodi and Plex, Emby is a very new media player that, like Plex, lets you stream your media to other devices using a server.
- The Emby server is quickly installed and available for various systems. You can then access the media on your server using the apps for mobile devices, TVs or consoles.
- Emby also offers several plugins with which you can access various online media sources.
Alternatives to Vavoo: conclusion
Vavoo is a system that, according to the manufacturer, allows you to watch current films with just one click. However, plugins are required for this, the use of which is illegal. If you still want to use these plugins, there are similar or identical plugins for Kodi, which is completely free. Kodi is the best alternative if you are looking for a Vavoo-like system.
However, if you just want to stream your own media files, Plex is the better solution, since you can get started right after installation and Plex will automatically find all the information you need. You can then start your films and other media files on any device from anywhere by logging in with your user data. Emby is very similar to Plex and offers more plugins - but the software is still relatively new and not as developed as Plex otherwise.
