Server Version#: Latest (beta Plex -Docker) DS918+ DSM 7 (latest)
Player Version#: -
Hi, after i saw @ChuckPa instructions for running the Native App and Docker (with the Library of the native App) on the same Synology NAS (one or the other, but both installed, both using the same library of the nativ App) i wanted to ask how this works when Docker was installed first. The Docker Plex Library is installed in the Docker Share on may Syno. Can the nativ app use this library?
@ChuckPa is this possible and when how? could you do a step by step tutorial?
If Docker Plex exists first and you wish it to become the same as the native server version,
We use the path information from your docker configuration
We create a special little Scheduled Task - User Script which moves the files from one location to the other and sets all the ownership to match the native app.
Once this is completed, the existing Plex instance will have been destroyed because the Docker Plex files have overwritten it.
It’s easily done. I only need to know the paths and confirm this is what you wish to do.
Is it possible to use the native App with the library in /volume1/docker/plex/?
I want to keep the docker installation because of HW Transcoding-Tonemapping, but when the time comes and supports tonemapping in hardware be able to switch to the native app without start building my library from zero again.
