I have the exact same issue when using my tablet. The latest version available for manual download for Synology diskstation 7.2 is PlexMediaServer-1.41.6 which yields the error “This package requires DSM 7.2-70000 or older”.

Hopefully a version be released soon to sync with the Android app requirements.

Cheers,  
Jake

Apologies for the thread hi-jacking -

@tom80H the community version for DSM 7.2.2 is 1.40.4 - manual install version available is 1.41.6

The manual install version for Plex cannot be installed due to the above error (requires an older version of DSM) and the community version 1.40 yields the out of date error, so we have a catch 22 here!

What version of DSM do you have installed?  
It sound like you’re picking the wrong package.

- [DSM 7 (older than 7.2.2)](https://www.plex.tv/media-server-downloads/?cat=nas&plat=synology-dsm7)
- [DSM 7.2.2 and newer](https://www.plex.tv/media-server-downloads/?cat=nas&plat=synology-dsm72)

Can you share the full file name of the Plex installer and the full DSM version from the NAS Control Center?

The DS418j is not an ARMv7 machine.

It’s an ARMv8. I have one here (my development system)

You want the

Doh! I feel a bit stupid now. I checked the manufacturer page but it did not specify the ARM version, so I just guessed.

Confirmed that the ARMv8 PlexMediaServer-1.41.6.9685-d301f511a-aarch64\_DSM72.spk install works fine.

Also after force-quitting the Android app, all works perfectly.

Thank you very much!

The NAS compatibility list is a good source to confirm the architecture of a NAS model. I’ve been searching on Syno’s homepage myself yesterday and couldn’t find any reference to ARMv7 vs. ARMv8 (it’s not even mentioning that the Realtek RTDxxxx chip is an ARM chip).
