Hy Guys
Yes this is a question that i found 1000 times in the web but no answer helped.
short cut what devices i have:
-PS4 (with Plex App)
-Harman Kardon BDS 580 (surround)
-NAS Synology DS2106 Play
-Samsung TV (an old one without apps… i will change it with a beamer).
-USB 3 Hard Disk
-Nintendo Switch (okay thats not important)
short cut what i want:
To look my movies (on DS216play before with the USB Hard Disk) with covers (PLEX) on my TV or later with the Beamer.
Movie Files (DVD Ripped)
-98% is MPEG-4 (codex: H.264 / AAC) and a few MPEG-4 (MPEG-4 / mp3)
What Works Allmost all…
-PS4 with the integrated media player, plays all from the synology DS216 play or from the USB Hard Disk (except MPEG-4 / mp3 no sound)
-TV with USB Hard Disk plays all
-Synology NAS DS216 Play all with the reciver or PS4 integrated media player Mobile and MacBook)
-Synology NAS DS216 with Plex plays with mobil and macbook
What dosent work…ISSUE…
-Synology NAS DS216 with Plex plays 2% from the movies with the PS4 (Plex App or with The Browser) why?
It allways says server (DS216play) dosent have enough power (why transcoding?) with the integrated media player on PS4 it works fine, but unfortunately without cover.
PLEX APP on PS4 Settings
Video… Original… Original…no Subtitles Codecs it tried for H.264 = 4.0 / 4.1 (recommended) 4.2… 5.0… none
Nothing works…
The few movies that works… it works with all settings i tried…
On the PLEX website i see the notice that my NAS transcoding will not be supported…
On the Synology Website it says… no problem with 4K…
Question:
What can id do?
PLEX dosent supprot NAS DS with the CPU ARMv7
Will it works when i take apple TV3 instead the PS4 (for transcoding)?
Should i take NIVIDIA Shield instead the PS4 (for transcoding) or an Mac Mini?
Which device i need extra.
Or should i change the NAS, but the new NAS will allway have the CPU ARM…?
Will PLEX ever support the CPU ARM?
I dont want to run my macbook just to wathc a movie at home.
SRY my english not the best… but i get no answer on the german site.
Please take a look on the pictures
Cheers
