Add Usenet to a Personal Media Stack that came with Decypharr — without doubling your storage bill.
A managed NzbDav instance: a virtual filesystem that exposes your Usenet library over WebDAV, so Sonarr/Radarr can stream NZBs in place instead of downloading them. If your Personal Media Stack shipped with Decypharr (the Real-Debrid side), NzbDav adds Usenet alongside it — same arr stack, two content sources. Bring your own Usenet provider account.
Usenet content as a virtual filesystem — Sonarr/Radarr "download" through a SABnzbd-compatible API, but the bytes never actually land on your disk. Stream from NZBs in place.
What is NzbDav?
NzbDav turns Usenet into a streamable virtual filesystem. It exposes a SABnzbd-compatible API to Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr/Readarr — so the arrs treat it like a normal Usenet downloader — but instead of writing files to disk, NzbDav mounts each NZB as a WebDAV path that media servers can stream and seek. No download wait, no storage growing forever, no post-processing queue.
This product is a hosted NzbDav add-on for an existing ElfHosted Personal Media Stack. It's pre-configured to talk to your stack's existing arrs and to expose its WebDAV mount alongside your bundled Decypharr (or other content layer) — one library, two sources.
Key Features
- 📡 Stream-in-place from Usenet: WebDAV virtual filesystem reads NZBs on demand. No full downloads, no disk usage, no waiting.
- 🔁 SABnzbd-compatible API: Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr/Readarr think they're talking to SABnzbd. Drop it in as a download client and they're done.
- 🧷 Connects to your stack's existing arrs: uses the Sonarr/Radarr you already have in your Personal Media Stack — not a fresh deployment.
- 🗂️ Archive handling: reads from RAR, 7z, and password-protected archives without extracting them locally.
- 📦 Sits next to Decypharr: if your stack has the Decypharr side already, NzbDav is the Usenet half — both feeding the same arrs and the same library.
- 🔄 Updates handled: ElfHosted keeps NzbDav current alongside the rest of your stack.
Decypharr vs NzbDav — and Why You Might Want Both
ElfHosted Personal Media Stacks ship with one of two content layers, depending on the variant you bought:
- Decypharr side — Real-Debrid via qBit-API shim, downloads cached on RD.
- NzbDav side — Usenet streaming as a virtual filesystem (no downloads).
Buying this standalone NzbDav makes sense if your stack came with Decypharr (Real-Debrid) and you want to add Usenet alongside it without spinning up a second arr stack. The flip case — your stack came with NzbDav and you want to add Real-Debrid — is what Decypharr [Standalone] is for. Run both alongside your bundled arrs and you get a single library fed by both Usenet and Real-Debrid.
Why Run NzbDav on ElfHosted?
Self-hosting a WebDAV-mounted Usenet filesystem is fiddly: you need it reachable to your arrs and your media server simultaneously, you need its SABnzbd API to stay in sync with whatever Sonarr/Radarr expect, and you need stable mounts that survive restarts and provider changes. ElfHosted's standalone NzbDav handles all of that:
- Pre-configured to authenticate with your stack's arrs out of the box.
- Usenet provider credentials managed via your ElfHosted control panel.
- WebDAV paths line up with your bundled Decypharr (or other content layer), so both content sources feed one library.
- Updates roll out in lockstep with the rest of your stack.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a Personal Media Stack to use this?
Yes. NzbDav [Standalone] is explicitly an add-on to an existing ElfHosted Personal Media Stack — it has no arrs, no library, and no automation of its own. It plugs into the arrs you already have.
My stack already has NzbDav bundled. Do I need this?
No. If your stack variant came with the Usenet layer, you've already got NzbDav — the standalone is for stacks that came with Decypharr instead.
Do I need a Usenet provider subscription?
Yes. NzbDav reads NZBs from your Usenet provider — bring your own account from any reputable provider. ElfHosted does not resell Usenet access.
How is this different from SABnzbd?
SABnzbd downloads NZBs to disk; NzbDav streams them in place via WebDAV. Same SABnzbd-compatible API to your arrs, different storage model. Use NzbDav when you want a "no downloads ever" Usenet workflow; use SABnzbd when you want actual files written to your cloud storage.
Can I run NzbDav and Decypharr at the same time?
That's the intended pattern. Sonarr/Radarr can have multiple download clients configured — point one at NzbDav (Usenet) and one at Decypharr (Real-Debrid), and the arrs will pick whichever has the release first.
Does it work with Stremio?
Yes — Stremio's WebDAV-aware addons can browse the NzbDav mount directly, but the primary use case in this product is feeding your existing arr stack.
NzbDav [Standalone] adds Usenet to a Personal Media Stack that already has Real-Debrid covered. Same arrs, same library — just a second content source feeding it. Buy this when you want both Real-Debrid and Usenet working through one automation stack.

Zurg [Standalone]
Real-Debrid as a real filesystem — for the media server you already have.
A managed Zurg instance that turns your Real-Debrid account into a browseable WebDAV filesystem. Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Infuse, Kodi — anything that reads files — sees your RD library as a normal mount. No media server included; if you want Zurg + a media server bundled, look at Zurgling instead. Bring your own Real-Debrid subscription.
SABnzbd
Hosted SABnzbd — the classic Usenet downloader, with your cloud storage as the destination.
A managed SABnzbd instance hosted on ElfHosted. Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr/Readarr push NZBs to SABnzbd, which downloads, repairs, and unpacks them into your connected cloud storage (Google Drive, OneDrive, S3, B2, anything rclone supports). Files actually land — unlike NzbDav's stream-in-place model. Bring your own Usenet provider account.
Decypharr [Standalone]
Add Real-Debrid to a Personal Media Stack that came with NzbDav — without changing what already works.
A managed Decypharr instance: a qBittorrent-API shim that routes Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, and Readarr requests to your Real-Debrid account. If your Personal Media Stack shipped with NzbDav (the Usenet side), Decypharr adds Real-Debrid alongside it — same arr stack, two content sources. Bring your own Real-Debrid subscription.
Webtor
Stream torrent content in your browser — no client, no downloads, no exposing your home IP to swarms.
A managed Webtor instance hosted on ElfHosted. Drop in a magnet link or .torrent and stream the contents directly in your browser, mount the torrent library over WebDAV for native players (Infuse, Kodi, VLC), or grab files as a single ZIP. All peer-to-peer traffic happens server-side — your home IP never touches the swarm.

Its not perfect. Code still needs a bit of work. But I’m sure as time progresses it will get better an better.
I have no issues streaming and there is a lot more content from NNTP servers.
The best thing since sliced bread.
More Content, Less lag in streaming
Code need a little work.
