Plex Debrid Zurg Windows Guide

These are the scripts I use to start my plex debrid set up with windows. It assumes you have zurg.exe and rclone.exe in C:/zurg/ and plex_debrid in C:/plex_debrid/ and that you want to mount zurg as Z: drive. You can edit the vbs files if you want them elsewhere.

These scripts go in %appdata%/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Startup/

Zurg Installation

  1. Download zurg.exe and rclone.exe and put them in C:/zurg/.
  2. Save config.yml and rclone.conf to C:/zurg/.
  3. Edit config.yml and add your token.
  4. Edit rclone.conf, update url references to zurg with localhost. For example url: http://zurg:9999/dav becomes url: http://localhost:9999/dav; you should replace two occurrences, one for dav and one for http
  5. Save zurg.vbs and rclone_zurg.vbs from this repo and put them in %appdata%/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Startup/.
  6. Restart your computer or double click the vbs files to run them manually. They execute silently. You'll know they're running when you see the new mounted Z: drive as well as zurg.exe and rclone.exe running in Task Manager.
  7. You can now configure Plex to scan the folders in this drive. Add media using debridmediamanager.com.

Plex Debrid Installation

This is for convenience. You can run a fully functional set up with just zurg and DMM in the steps above. Even with plex_debrid set up, I use DMM a lot, especially with the browser extensions.

Get Python, if you don't have it.

  1. Download plex debrid and extract it to C:/plex_debrid/.
  2. Run cd C:/plex_debrid/ in cmd. Run pip install -r requirements.txt and then python main.py.
  3. Continue the standard setup guide to set up your "content service". Close the python cmd window when you're done.
  4. Save plex_debrid.vbs from this repo and put it in %appdata%/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Startup/.
  5. Before running plex_debrid.vbs, add a movie and a show using debridmediamanager.com and make sure Plex is already set up to scan the zurg folders.
    • Plex_debrid will refuse to work if your media libraries are empty. This is to protect the user from accidentally repeatedly re-downloading your watchlist if plex_debrid just can't see your library.
  6. Double click the vbs file to run it or restart your computer. Again, it executes silently. You will only see that python is running in Task Manager.

This is my way of doing it. Check out the other guides if you want.
