Features Overview#
🚀 What is DUMB?#
DUMB (Debrid Unlimited Media Bridge) is an all-in-one media management solution designed to streamline the process of finding, downloading, organizing, and streaming media content. It integrates multiple services into a single Docker image, providing automation and efficiency for managing media libraries.
🔑 Key Features#
- Unified Deployment – Combines multiple tools into a single, easy-to-deploy system with onboarding-driven setup.
- Built-In Media Server Integration – Includes Plex Media Server, Jellyfin, and Emby, fully embedded in the container to eliminate mount propagation issues.
- Automated Content Management – Uses Debrid and Usenet services alongside Plex Discover Watchlists, Trakt lists, and Seerr to automate media retrieval.
- Arr + WebDAV Workflows – Supports Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Whisparr, plus WebDAV-driven clients like Decypharr (Debrid) and NzbDAV (Usenet).
- Integrated Web UI – Control and manage services through a simple web-based interface.
- Modular Design – Each service (Riven, Zurg, Zilean, etc.) is independently configurable and upgradable.
- Advanced Logging & Monitoring – View and filter service logs directly from the DUMB Frontend.
🛠️ Core Components#
DUMB integrates the following projects to create a seamless media experience:
🎞️ Riven#
Riven is one of multiple options responsible for content management, handling search queries, downloading, and organizing media for streaming.
🎞️ CLI Debrid#
CLI Debrid is one of multiple options responsible for content management, handling search queries, downloading, and organizing media for streaming.
🎞️ Decypharr#
Decypharr is a Debrid-focused option responsible for content management, handling search queries, downloading, and organizing media for streaming.
📥 NzbDAV#
NzbDAV provides an NZB WebDAV gateway and Arr download-client integration for Usenet workflows.
🧭 Prowlarr#
Prowlarr centralizes indexer management and syncs indexers across the Arr stack.
📚 Arrs (Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr/Whisparr)#
The Arrs handle TV, movies, music, and adult content automation and organization. During onboarding, selecting Decypharr or NzbDAV can wire Arr instances automatically.
🤖 Zurg#
Zurg acts as the automation engine that interacts with Real-Debrid to fetch media files.
🗂️ Zilean#
Zilean enhances content discovery and caching, optimizing the efficiency of media lookups.
☁️ rclone#
rclone manages cloud storage connections and allows mounting remote debrid storage as if it were a local drive.
🖥️ Plex Media Server#
Plex is bundled directly inside DUMB, providing internal access to rclone-mounted content without needing to expose paths via external bind mounts.
🖥️ Jellyfin & Emby#
Jellyfin and Emby are alternative media servers supported inside the same container.
🗃️ PostgreSQL & pgAdmin 4#
- PostgreSQL serves as the primary database for storing metadata, configurations, and user preferences.
- pgAdmin 4 provides a web-based database management interface, making it easy to manage PostgreSQL.
🔍 How Does It Work?#
DUMB simplifies the media management workflow by:
- Run Onboarding to select core services and auto-enable required dependencies.
- Scan Lists & Requests from Plex, Trakt, and Seerr.
- Fetch From Debrid or Usenet providers (Real-Debrid, AllDebrid, etc.).
- Route Through Orchestrators (Riven/CLI Debrid) or Arr clients (Decypharr/NzbDAV).
- Mount & Organize Content via Zurg + rclone and Arr-managed libraries.
- Stream via Plex/Jellyfin/Emby using internal paths and embedded media servers.
