Note: Each user can only use one redemption code. Reusing a code will not accumulate duration.

External Players Based on Device

This version adds support for Infuse and nPlayer. The system automatically detects and displays available external players based on the user's device.

Note: If the corresponding video player is not installed on your device, calling it will fail.

Docker Tag Changes

Since the release of Zdir 4, the Docker image tag has been helloz/zdir:4. Starting from October 14, 2024, the latest tag will push the latest version (previously, latest pointed to 3.x).

# Pull the latest Zdir 4.x version

Users attempting to install using Zdir 3 methods will now see a warning and be guided to use the Zdir 4 installation method.

Name Sorting Optimization

Previously, Zdir sorted files by the first character of the filename, which caused issues for files starting with numbers. Now, the system correctly identifies and sorts numeric prefixes at the beginning of filenames.
