Debrid Media Manager + zurg + rex

rex is public now, like I promised for Halloween. Anyone can download it from https://github.com/debridmediamanager/rex and read the source. It's free for personal use. The setup guide is at https://rex.debridmediamanager.com and the video above shows what it does. Thank you to every sponsor who ran

Pressing Want on DMM only puts the title on your list. Your zurg picks the release, using the acquisition: block in its config.yml, and those settings apply to every source, so the DMM wanted list, your Plex watchlist, Seerr, Radarr and Sonarr all follow them. quality decides which resolution zurg t

You can now build your own addons for rex. An addon is a small program that tells rex what it has over rex's feed API and serves the videos when someone presses play, and whatever it brings shows up as a library in every Plex app. zurg is just one source among them and yours gets the same treatment.

A new version of the DMM browser extension is out on Chrome and Firefox. It puts a DMM button on the title page of the site you're on, and one click opens that title on DMM. It now works on TMDB, TVmaze, Simkl, Serializd, Wikipedia and Stremio Web too, next to IMDb, Trakt, Letterboxd, JustWatch, MDB

You can now keep a wanted list on DMM, and your zurg fetches everything on it. No Sonarr, no Radarr and nothing to mount. It's for sponsors. Open a movie and press Want. On a show's season page, Want S2 adds that season and Want all seasons adds the whole show, including seasons that aren't out yet.

A lot of you told me GitHub's email came too late (FU MS!), so gatekeeper now sends you its own email the moment your invite goes out, with the link to accept it. It goes to your Patreon or card email. If you sponsor through GitHub Sponsors, GitHub never shares your email with me, so sign in at http

Everyone you share rex with now gets their own watch history, ratings and playlists. rex no longer needs a TMDB key, and once it's claimed it doesn't need your Plex token either and shows Plex's own posters and metadata. Movie libraries also get Plex's automatic collections once you set a minimum co

rex is out for sponsors today! It's a media server that owns no files. Your movies and shows stay with your debrid service or Usenet provider and every Plex compatible app sees a normal server with posters, seasons, cast and your watch history. There is no scanning. zurg tells rex what files it has

Your Library recognizes TV shows now too, not just movies. Season packs and single episodes get the show's real name and the season or episode they hold, plus the blue verified check, and Go to show page takes you straight to the show. DMM decides by itself whether a release is a movie or a show, an

Your Library now recognizes your movies. Once all your debrid services finish loading, DMM checks every movie in it, and when it's sure, the title parsed from the filename is replaced with the real one from IMDb plus a blue verified check. Click the row and the info popup shows the movie poster. The

Setting zurg up yourself can be a lot! So I'm offering to do it for you, free for sponsors. Give me access to a machine and I'll set up zurg with your debrid accounts, mount your library, and install Plex or Jellyfin next to it with the right permissions. A Raspberry Pi works, so does a mini PC, a N

zurg can now take a whole show from one pack. A lot of the best copies of a finished show are posted as one pack with every season in it, like S01-S05 or a complete series, and until now zurg skipped those and looked for each season on its own. Now a season can come out of a pack that holds several.

Long list of DMM changes in the last 2 weeks! Real-Debrid changed its filename filter and DMM follows the new rules now. The full list of what's refused and what isn't is at https://www.patreon.com/debridmediamanager/posts/complete-list-of-158388927 TV season pages read every release name into the e

Anime on DMM now has its own pages. Every season, split cour, OVA, ONA, special and movie gets its own page per AniDB entry, so Ascendance of a Bookworm season 4 is one page with its own 24 episodes instead of being squeezed into whatever season layout IMDb and TMDB happen to agree on. Pick an episo

Movie pages on DMM now clean themselves up. A lot of what gets scraped under a movie isn't that movie at all. Sequels, the TV series with the same name, soundtracks, games, other films from the same year and random junk all end up on the wrong page. Here's some of what got taken off on day one. Zoot

zurg has an endpoint at /mcp speaking the Model Context Protocol, so a client like Claude can search your library, work out why a release will not play and repair it. Turn it on with mcp: {enabled: true} and point the client at http://your-zurg:9999/mcp. Clients that only speak stdio use zurg mcp, w

zurg can now take its list straight from Radarr. Add a movie to Radarr however you like, from a list or by hand or from Seerr, and zurg finds a release on your Usenet indexers, checks that the post is still on the news servers, puts the video in the movie's folder inside __magic__ and asks Radarr to

zurg plugins are now on Emby! Six of them put your Real-Debrid, AllDebrid, TorBox, Premiumize, Offcloud and Debrid-Link accounts straight into Emby as ordinary movies and shows with artwork and metadata. No mount, no rclone, no second service to run. Install only the ones you have, they don't need e

DMM can now tell you whether Debrid-Link already has a release. Debrid-Link took away their cache check endpoint a while back so there was no way to ask, and someone on Discord pointed out that adding a bare info hash works as the check instead, because Debrid-Link only accepts a bare hash when it a

The Android app is the same zurg that runs on your server, except the engine runs on the phone itself, so nothing at home needs to be switched on for it to work. One app covers phones, tablets, Android TV and Google TV, and it needs Android 8.0 or newer. Every provider account you've set up shows up

Two scanning fixes worth knowing about. One if you run zurg on Windows, one if you have repair switched off. If you installed zurg on Windows it has never told Plex or Jellyfin or Emby to scan. zurg setup writes a mount_path of Z: on Windows, and zurg then built its scan paths relative to the curren

New zurg updates this week! Usenet playback is a lot faster. zurg keeps reading ahead while it waits instead of stopping at the article it is waiting for, and it shares that read ahead across the volumes of a RAR. Releases served as one big RAR are around twice as fast as before and they start much

The debrid services keep independent caches. A release Real-Debrid has purged, or one it refuses on the filename alone, can be sitting cached on AllDebrid right now under the same hash, and until now zurg could not use that. Repair always re-added a release to the account it came from, so once that

New DMM features this week! On a show with more than one season press Instant RD (All Seasons) or Instant TB (All Seasons). DMM checks every season against your library, picks a complete pack where one is cached and falls back to single episodes where it isn't. Seasons you already have are skipped.

Four new Jellyfin plugins put your accounts straight into Jellyfin as ordinary movies and shows with artwork and metadata. No mount, no rclone, no second service to run. Install only the ones you have, they don't need each other. RD zurg plugin - RD sometimes hands you a file wrapped in a RAR withou

It is the same zurg running on your servers but repackaged as an Android app. Try it and let me know what you think. This is great for VidHub https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oumi.utility.media.hub&hl=en

Benchmark of five servers that mount Usenet as a filesystem and stream articles on demand. 18 August 2026, one day after the first round. Same box, same news account, same test files. One server running at a time, so nobody fights over the 20-connection budget. Versions: zurg 97b658e5 (yesterday: 47

zurg is no longer just a Real-Debrid mount but now it supports multiple debrid accounts and can now stream from Usenet. Configure as many as you like, in any mix of Real-Debrid, TorBox, AllDebrid and Usenet, in one providers: block. A release held by several of them is one folder with a copy per acc

The first line of zurg was written on October 16 2023, almost 3 years ago. I wanted a faster webdav option from RD's native one and I didn't want to install and maintain a custom rclone. The initial release cycle was scrappy. Users from the Ragnarok discord server tested it with me. There was no AI

It's been a while so here's a new DMM feature announcement post! Now you can send torrents from TB to RD, even the ones blocked by RD (web-dl, webrip etc.) To do this you have to be logged in with both a RD and a TB account! After it shows completed it means the torrent is now in your library and is

Update, 14 October 2026 Real-Debrid has changed this filter again. WEB-DL, WEB.x264 and WEB.H264 are now refused only when written exactly like that, so web-dl, Web-Dl, WEB.h264 and other capitalizations of them go through. The other eight, WEBRip, BDRip, HDRip, DVDRip, HDTV.x264, HDTV.XviD, BluRay.

This is what a RD-powered Spotify would look like. Just your RD account enabling you to stream high quality music without downloading apps. https://debridmediamanager.com/albums Enjoy listening!

Just a thought... Real-Debrid really is just like usenet Instead of usenet's NNTP, Real-Debrid uses HTTPS People upload to usenet using the same protocol while Real-Debrid uses BitTorrent And ever since RD removed the cache check endpoint, DMM became the first RD indexer! (and also AllDebrid indexer

I'm aware that users are frustrated with zurg's internal rclone with problems like ghost mounts and empty folders. Many of you went back to external rclone, but I found the fix. The old way of "/mnt/zurg:/mnt/zurg:rshared" does not work because of how Linux handles FUSE. For the mount to show on you

Ever encountered these kinds of torrents? And then when you download it in RD and select all the files, it becomes a RAR archive (?!) This is a big pain in the ass because you have to download and extract it to watch the content right? But what if... ...it works just like a regular torrent? Let's al

Mass report buttons to let you report items in batch when it's wrongly tagged or is p0rn Availability check now also checks for seeder counts so even if it's uncached, you know it is downloadable by Real-Debrid (and it won't get stuck) DMM Cast Stremio addon updates - more streams, configurable size

Update: offer expired 2 hours just after posting this Note: only compatible with the latest nightly because of routing issues. This commit fixes that. CloudMounter They're generously offering the app's lifetime plan for free. Just search "CloudMounter" in the app store. https://apps.apple.com/us/app

On the latest nightly I've decided to redo the whole repair feature so currently it is force disabled. At this point, there's too many features updated and added from the past 3 months so best if I just show you the screenshots.

Example above. Sometimes the BTM script is in Gold/Black background. To prevent that from happening, go to your Plex server settings. In there go to Agents (Legacy). And then, under Movies, you have several tabs: Personal Media Plex Movie (Legacy) The Movie Database Plex Personal Media Go through ea

First off, a new STRM tutorial drops! Big thanks to Nikephoros I. (He gets 3 months of RD vouchers) Breaking Changes Removed Auto-Dump Library Feature (change from Apr 30) The automatic library dumping feature has been completely removed Removed configuration option: `dump_torrents_every_mins` Users

I'm getting tons of questions about how to setup strm files with zurg but since I am not using this workflow, I am not able to provide a straight answer besides it only working on Infuse or Jellyfin or Emby. I'm gifting a 1 month RD sub to anyone who can create a tutorial (post it in r/RealDebrid or
