MY Mistake! Thank you. (crazy Monday here)
|DS218+|Intel Celeron J3355|Dual Core|2|Yes|Apollolake|DDR3L SO-DIMM 2GB|
The DS218+ does support HW transcoding. Bump it to its maximum 8GB (2x 4GB) and you’ll be all set.
My apologies.
ps: I should have looked at the NAS guide again. I’m the guy who maintains it
