I own a synology 1812+ which I keep up to date and there has been a recent update (not sure if that will explain the reason I am having the following issue)

 

I have a plex account set up with several folders and all folders are being pulled from a folder called video on my synology server.  So inside the video folder I have a folder called TV shows, Movies, Home movies, etc.

 

When I open up my plex app on any device (or by going to plex online) it registers the NAS as being a plex server and serves up all my categories for me to choose from.  If I select the home videos folder everything is fine they show up they can be played everything's great.  If I chose the TV shows or Movies folder I get the following error "There seems to be a problem: can't connect to the selected server or the content is no longer available"  No I can look in my folders on my mac and the movies/tv shows are still there and able to be played on VLC on my mac.  But I can't get them to play or even register using the plex app.  I have tried recreating a movies group in plex and sending it to the same folder but the issue still remains.

 

any help on getting this fixed?

 

thanks

Hey folks,

I am not sure if this is the correct section for my matter, so if I am wrong here it would be nice if somebody could move my thread.
I am looking for a NAS which should be able to stream in my internal network and external. The basic formats like mkv, avi, mp4 should be supported. In additional to this the NAS should be used as backup server for my Apple devices.
Do you guys have some advices which NAS is perfect for my usage? It do not has to be a Synology NAS.

Best regards

Detecting Music Videos on Synology

I have Plex running on a Synology and I am trying to add Music Videos that I have downloaded. I have followed the instructions from Plex but nothing seems to be happening. I am adding videos as a Global Music Videos Folder. I have specified the Global Folder as follows:

/volume1/video/Music Videos/

Since this method does not associate this folder with a library specifically, how do I know if it is working? Will they just show up when I search for them? If so, my Plex does not seem to be detecting the videos...

Hi everyone, i'm a new here, i try to buy a NAS. I'll need it to backup my files and for using it like a Plex Media Server!

I've see that the Syn DS716+ have good performance with its Quad-Core, i like it for his transfert speed, 2 Ethernet port and hot swap unit.
I haven't understood if i can play, with Plex, my videos in 4k o 1080p, from this NAS, with my PS4 or my MacBook. If it isn't possible, which nas you suggest to me? I can spend around 350-400€ (only NAS)

P.S. Sorry for my english but i'm italian!

Any ideas why?

Bug: Plex Server does not start during start up of NAS (DS214play)

Hi there,

 

my Plex server does not start automatically during the start up of the NAS.

 

When I start the server manually it runs fine.

 

The log says:

Whereas the first error message (unable to open named mutex) also occurs during the manual start up of the server

 

Plex: 0.9.9.7

NAS: DS214play

DSM: 5.0 - 4482

 

Does anyone have clue?

Best, cost effective NAS to run Plex

Experts,

I'm currently trying to work out the best solution for locally (for the moment) streaming videos/music from a central storage to multiple devices (Smart TV, iPad, Apple TV Gen3, etc) as a way of creating a media centre. I currently just use ITunes and AirPlay but it's pretty rigid, requires my laptop to always be on and can generally be a pain in the ass.

I really like the Plex UI and the flexibility of the app and have been looking at a Synology Nas (specifically DS215J) to store my media. My current worry is I've seen a lot of messages warning that it will struggle to transcode video because of its low CPU power and I wanted to see whether anyone could advise whether my media would need transcoding given its all in an MP4 format? If so, what's the best way of Encoding the files so they can stream directly? If either arent sensible, is there a different NAS you would suggest?

Thanks in advance!

Hi there :)

I own a DS216play - processor STM Monaco STiH412 - DSM 5.2-5644 Update 4.
I am having issues playing the HEVC / H265 codec while using my NAS as a media server.

I have attached 2 extracts of the XML.
Can you let me know your thoughts ?

Is there an actual table of what codecs are supported in direct play ?

Thanks,

Will Play

This update seems to share my library correctly, but the web access (direct) is broken.
Before I was able to go to http://192.168.x.21:32400/web/index.html but now it says "Not found".
And in the "Launch" page, the version is Version 0.9.15.3 asking updates, but on Synlogy Packages, version is correct, 0.9.15.4.1679-e4df231 ...
Don't know why :)

Viewing Transcoded Videos Under Optimized Version Settings

February 18, 2016, 5:29 am

Hey guys,

I absolutely love the fact that Plex released the ability to transcode video offline so that streaming can skip this step. I had written some Java apps that were essentially doing this on a remote system on my network, but I prefer this feature since it lets me manage the content in a more specific fashion.

My major qualm is that if I go to Optimized Version Settings due to an error reported in the transcoding process, or really for any other reason, and click on a transcoding job, I have to constantly scroll down to find what I'm looking for. I setup a transcoding job for ALL tv shows on the NAS for example. This has over 7000 files. If, say, file 6999 didn't transcode correctly, I would need to scroll constantly for half an hour to find what file failed.

Is there a better way to filter transcoded processes? If not, I would love to see this as a feature in future releases. Creating separate transcoding jobs for each tv series would help with this issue. But it doesn't scale well. And, if a show has hundreds of episodes, it will still leave a user scrolling for extended periods of time to try and find an episode that may have had a failure.
