You might have noticed that I purged everyone's access to the repo. Worry not, im just experimenting with a new app I built to auto-issue access to the repo. Please go to https://gatekeeper.debridmediamanager.com/ and test it out. Back to regular zurg programming!

2025-05-10 06:58:54 +0000 UTC View PostI'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 your own website, doesn't matter). 1 RD voucher per person only. To join, just comment on this post (or in the reddit post) of the tutorial you made and I'll contact you for your voucher.

2025-05-03 17:23:59 +0000 UTC View PostHere's a summary of the changes I've made to Zurg today (April 30, 2025) that might impact your setup. This is coming on the nightly version later.
Dashboard Improvements
What it does: Allows you to quickly reconnect Zurg to your Plex/Jellyfin/Emby servers
When to use it: If you start Zurg before your media server, or if your media server restarts
First of all, thanks for your continued support while I grind away on the codebase. I am not able to reply to each one of you but I'm sincerely grateful to the support I've received. As always, please ping me on Discord if anything feels off.
Here’s a concise rundown of what changed since the March 19 post.
Scraper overhaul: rebuilt from scratch; fresh torrents should now appear noticeably faster.
DMM's own “Instant” RD cache has a caveat: ...
2025-04-26 12:24:05 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys, I've been catching up on the debrid scene so please allow me some patience as I ramp up my development pace.
Here are some recent changes I've made on zurg:
General: address the large virtual memory allocation of go's runtime - thanks @efraimbart

First of all, updates on Real-Debrid's cache database. We've now recorded 4 PETABYTES+ and 300,000++ unique torrents. Real-Debrid is very much alive and thriving.
Here are some updates that just dropped for DMM and zurg:
🆕 Related Movies/Shows: Discover content faster with Related Movies/Shows now displayed on the movie or show page.
🔍 Title-Based Search Tokens: You can now search more precisely w...
2024-12-21 21:30:07 +0000 UTC View Post
When that blue "DL with RD" button is clicked and turns to "RD (100%)", DMM saves this torrent's information so that other users will know that this torrent is cached.
This is the solution we've designed to cope up with the loss of instantAvailability endpoint. I didn't expect it to work so well, especially now that I've bought 2 new RD subscriptions that powers up bots checking every hash in t...
2024-11-26 16:20:34 +0000 UTC View Post1. What is RD Cache?
Answer: Real-Debrid cache is synonymous to their storage servers. Every content that their users download are stored so that when another user requests for it, it's not redownloaded again. It is available instantly for other users, and without waiting, you can watch content immediately.
When RD removed their "instant availability" endpoint, we lost the ability to look into which content are available to be watched...
2024-11-25 07:40:35 +0000 UTC View PostRD's cache is alive and healthy. This set represents 200++ TB of content across 2,500++ unique movies and shows. And this is just purely community effort from the first day.
Tomorrow I'll start doing some automation on this but thanks to everyone who is participating!
2024-11-24 11:41:04 +0000 UTC View PostChanges observed:
1. They've removed CORS headers from their API and even my local development is affected. (Fixed in DMM)
2. They've killed the instantAvailability endpoint. (Fixed in DMM)
3. Torrents are mostly unaffected. (zurg is still working fine)
--- Update: 23.11.2024 22:59 CET
4. RD has put an active download limit of 6

It's great that it'...
2024-11-22 11:28:38 +0000 UTC View PostThe version.txt file in the dav directory will now be available ONLY when the files are fully available on zurg. This makes version.txt a proper health check file. Check this bash one-liner to update zurg.
I've removed the "concurrent_workers" config to prevent lockups. This was previously causing library updates not work...
2024-11-07 14:52:42 +0000 UTC View PostAll show torrents are now color coded to show you if a torrent contains all episodes or not! Enjoy!
2024-11-03 13:42:46 +0000 UTC View PostDMM has been packaged now as a Progressive Web App and can now be "installed" on your device. I will start working on its offline experience.
To lessen the database load and make DMM more stable and reliable, I'm capping the torrent results to 100 items. You will have to use "Biggest movie size to show" and "Biggest episode size to show" in the Settings if you ...
2024-11-03 02:55:31 +0000 UTC View PostApologies for those having issues recently with zurg unrestricting too much or featurettes or trailers being selected or having incosistent torrents when fetching the whole list. These are all fixed now in the latest "nightly" released just a few minutes ago.
2024-11-02 15:53:49 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
I wanted to take a moment to talk about the “dump” feature I rolled out a few releases ago and get your thoughts on it. For those who’ve been using it, the dump feature creates a new `dump` directory on your mount where you can find content from zurgtorrent files. The idea was to foster a community space for sharing these files and helping each other build our libraries—kind of like DMM’s hashlists, but specifically for zurg.
When I first launched it, I tho...
2024-10-27 17:21:20 +0000 UTC View PostUPDATE: Less than 1 hour of posting this, Real-Debrid has fixed the issue, thanks to u/LayeZee from r/elfhosted's report.

2024-10-26 09:17:24 +0000 UTC View PostTonight, the latest nightly release of zurg drops! This nightly release focuses on improving reliability, configurability, and code quality. Here's a comprehensive overview of what's new:
1. Handle Erratic RD API responses
Very recently, I noticed that sometimes, when fetching a page of torrents in your library, RD API will return an empty list. This causes zurg to think that you've deleted your torrents so it will mess up your l...

2024-10-22 19:50:46 +0000 UTC View PostNew update to DMM extension adds support to all torrent websites sporting magnet links. I only tested a few public indexers and no more manual work of copy pasting or uploading of torrents.
Hey everyone!
I'm excited to share the latest changes to zurg arriving on the next nightly release. This release focuses on enhancing performance, adding new features, and fixing some pesky bugs. Here's what's new:
Multiple User Info shown for all download tokens
Now you can manage multiple RealDebrid accounts seamlessly from a single interface.
Now DMM should be noticeably faster. Please report any issues!
I will be moving towards client-side requests for all RD API calls, this is just part 1.
2024-10-15 01:07:54 +0000 UTC View PostRecently, a second user reported successfully bypassing Real-Debrid (RD) bandwidth restrictions using Zurg's nightly release. The first user who identified this issue was operating on version 0.9.3. With these two data points, we observed a correlation linked to the unrestrict caching mechanism.
Understanding the Issue: My analysis suggests that when a non-residential IP reaches the 400GB bandwidth limit, the restriction primarily applies to previously unrestricted...
2024-10-13 10:07:51 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
Today's nightly release brings some important updates and a cool new feature!

I've been working hard on the latest Zurg nightly release, with a focus on improving how repairs function. This update ensures that the repair process won't consume excessive bandwidth, addressing an important issue with the repair loop. The main goal here is to make repairs safe and efficient again.
Here’s how repairs now work in Zurg: It's reactive. If Zurg attempts to unrestrict a file and the RD API returns an error, that file is flagged as broken and Zurg will automatically queue...

2024-10-01 06:38:01 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
The past few weeks have been a bit challenging, as I came down with the flu right when I was starting my new job. Unfortunately, this meant I had to put my projects on hold. But after some much-needed rest, I’m finally feeling better and ready to get back into coding. Expect some exciting updates and releases before the week starts!
Thanks for your patience and support!
