A media server for your personal collection — running 24/7 without managing your own hardware. Choose Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby as your media server, with library management tools like Sonarr, Radarr, and Bazarr to keep everything organised.
Pick a tier: Starter for basics, Hobbit for a typical library, Ranger or Halfling for larger collections, Nazgul for dedicated resources. Everything comes connected and ready to use — just point it at your media.
Hobbit – Personal Media Streamer [4xHD / 2x4K, semi-dedicated] | ElfHosted
The Goldilocks tier — not too small, not too big, just right for most personal libraries.
Hobbit is the most popular ElfHosted Personal Media Stack tier — the sweet spot between Starter’s contended hardware and Ranger’s larger capacity. Same configurable stack (media player, automation, storage provider — all your choice), on semi-dedicated hardware with double Starter’s stream capacity. 4xHD or 2x4K concurrent streams.
TorBox note: Choose a TorBox variation and a complimentary TorBox Essential account is included. Already have TorBox? Your existing account works too.
Debridge note: Debridge is the bundled cached-only debrid path for supported personal media stacks. BYO debrid accounts can sit alongside it when you want another route.
Ranger – Personal Media Streamer [8xHD / 4x4K, semi-dedicated]
Eight streams, four 4K. Built for shared libraries.
Ranger is the workhorse tier in the Personal Media Stack range — built for shared libraries and multi-room households. Twice Hobbit’s stream capacity (8xHD or 4x4K) on the same semi-dedicated hardware tier, running whichever combination of media player, automation, and cloud storage you choose at checkout.

Starter – Personal Media Streamer [2xHD / 1x4K, contended]
The starter pack for self-hosters who've had enough Docker.
Starter is the entry point into ElfHosted's Personal Media Stack range — a managed media server, library automation, and your choice of cloud storage provider, all preconfigured and stitched together. Built for one or two users on shared hardware.
Zurgling – Personal Media Streamer [2xHD / 1x4K, contended, manual]
Own your library, don't rent it from a debrid cache.
Zurgling is a hosted Zurg service paired with your choice of Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby. Connect your RealDebrid account, curate with Debrid Media Manager (DMM), and stream a real library you control — not a virtual one that vanishes when an addon goes dark. 2xHD or 1x4K on contended hardware. Bring your own RealDebrid subscription.

MediaStorm is a self-hosted streaming server with first-party native apps for every major TV and mobile platform. ElfHosted runs the backend, bundles a Usenet account with 150Mbps included, and lets you connect your own RealDebrid or TorBox subscription on top. Optional Gemini-powered AI recommendations and TMDB/TVDB metadata. 1x 4K or 2x HD streams.
Nazgul – Personal Media Streamer [16xHD / 8x4K streams, dedicated]
Halfling – Personal Media Streamer [16xHD / 8x4K, semi-dedicated]
Sixteen streams, eight 4K, on semi-dedicated hardware. The largest non-dedicated tier.
Halfling is the high-capacity end of the semi-dedicated tier — 16 simultaneous HD streams or 8 4K streams, designed for sizable shared libraries and content-shares with friends. The same configurable Personal Media Stack as the smaller tiers (your choice of media player, automation, and cloud storage provider) on hardware that’s reserved but not exclusive.
TorBox note: Choose a TorBox variation and a complimentary TorBox Essential account is included. Already have TorBox? Your existing account works too.
