On my Synology DS215j NAS running Plex Server, when I convert / optimise some media (a video for something else) I expect it to take some time.
If I go to the Conversion Activity page, it reports that conversion is complete almost immediately, suggesting to me that it's not actually converting anything at all.
The 'plex' user on my NAS as full R/W privileges to the Plex Shared Folder and the Media Video Folder, and is an administrator anyway, so it shouldn't be a permissions problem regardless of any other priv settings.
I know the Syno DS215j is a very basic underpowered NAS, but it should at least have a crack at conversion, even if it takes a long time (days, weeks).
What is going on here? Any ideas?
Thanks.
