Plex Media Server - Synology DSM 7 Preview - Issues ( Archive )

Plex Media Server NAS & Devices
2092

You might want to look at which version you have installed.

Package Center installs 1.21.1.3744 (which was the BETA package)

  1. It was flawed - it was beta and no longer supported. We are production release now
  2. PMS 1.24.1 is current.
  3. PMS 1.24.2 , with upgraded packaging “2.0” is about to release.

You should minimally now find that you have no more PMS metadata in the Plex shared folder.

If you do then Repair has done you a HUGE disservice. (almost always the case)

All documentation we have throughout the forum states:

  1. Uninstall the Plex app prior to DSM 7 upgrade
    -or-
  2. Uninstall the broken DSM 6 app immediately after upgrade.

DSM 7 is radically different from DSM 6 and our packaging receive a full ground-up rewrite.

Please read here before proceeding further.

Then, if you wish, please also read what is about to transpire in the updated implementation.

In the event you were using Docker or HyperBackup for your backups, the upgrded packaging easily supports docker and is directly accessible by HyperBackup
