Three attempts with the doing from the Package Installation were a failure. My 2 cents on the video and people’s comments:ġ: If running DSM 7.xx I suggest downloading from Synology and using that file. We do not offer services like that ourselves. You can install Plex app on your TV, Phone or Android HDMI stick, or anywhere else you want to stream.

Here is also a video version for this manual.įrom now on, you can see this server from any client device you are logged in. This will allow Plex to generate thumbnails and metadata.

You can manually initiate first scan through the files in that folder. Select a shared folder you created earlier. This will link it to your user account.Ĭlick on volume1 (unless you have multiple volumes created). Once you login, Plex will offer to claim this server. Or you can map Synology drive and copy like you would with USB drive. You can do it via web browser when you go to File Station app. Tick Read/Write permission box and click SaveĪt this point, you may want to copy your videos into this newly created folder.Open Permissions tab and select Internal user.Select the media folder you want Plex to have access to.Once you do that you need to give Plex app permission to access the contents of this folder. Or better head to Control Panel and Click Create/ Create Shared Folder You can do it using File Station app or Control Panel You will need to create a shared folder where you keep your videos. You can get it from here Īny plus series NAS such as DS220+, DS720+, DS920+, DS420+ etc.

Click Manual Install and choose the Plex package file.
