Well, I’ve installed the BETA PMS in the BETA DSM 7, with all the instructions that were given at time.
However (without seeing this thread) I’ve installed DSM 7 RC (DSM 7.0-41882), and I’m working with PMS (1.23.2.4625). Everything runs fine.
However I cannot update PMS anymore, because it gives the following message: Invalid file format. Please contact the developer.
I’ve the server running, but I cannot update it. At this time is the only inconvenience.
Did you see the forum-globally pinned announcement ?
@ChuckPa Thanks a lot for the packages. great work
Looks like my TV Butler isn’t able to find any channel. Is TV one of the things this RC broke? Tuner is detected, but 0 channels found. I’m on the 4600 build you posted here.
Is the tuner a USB tuner ?
Yes. Not more supported?
Correct. Synology discontinued all non-HDD USB devices as of DSM 7 .
In return, it also sheds support for a long list of legacy devices and services. For example, DSM 7.0 no longer supports ext3 volumes or USB dongles (for Wi-Fi , Bluetooth, cellular, speaker, and DTV) are no longer supported. Some popular apps are also no longer (fully) supported, either.
Plex still supports Ethernet tuners
Oh, I knew about that, but seeing Plex still could detect it I thought you relied on some own driver. Too bad, Synology is going back in several ways with this DSM.
I tried but Synology took everything I needed to access USB devices away from me.
If the USB tuner were on anything other than Synology, you’d be OK.
IMHO, Yes they are. I think it’s their way to bow out of the NAS market and would be consistent with statements made by their CEO a few years ago.
hi there some question to the dsm 7 rc problem… what to do when i installed the RC BEFORE i read the pinned post, like found it?
So Plex Build 4600 is fine installed manually, but waht is with nerwer builds in beta, that plex server announced ? sorry my english is not the best
I posted here. Please read . Google Translate seems to do OK with translations.
As mentioned, I read the post that you do not recommend dsm 7 RC until after I had already installed the version because I did not know that this would cause problems. I didn’t even have a dsm7 before. so i hope i get updates anyway
From DAY ONE of the DSM 7 BETA, we’ve warned. The number of DSM 7 threads in the forum is staggering.
The DSM 7 Forum Preview thread was posted for months while we worked through the issues.
My only knowledge of a a Preliminary RC Candidate was DSM 7.0-41876 – which fortunately never saw the light of day. It was completely broken. No third-party packages could be installed.
Synology pushed DSM 7.0-41882 to “Release Candiate” status WITHOUT NOTIFICATION.
Most folks, not thinking to check with Plex first, went ahead and upgraded their 7.0-41222 beta to 7.0-41882 RC
I had no choice but to react and find away around the breaking changes caused by that firmware.
I’m not trying to be a hard XXX here. There are limited manhours available and it’s impossible to develop a product which runs on a device which itself is not stable.
Is there a process documented to migrate PMS to a docker container within DSM? I never transcode anything, so I would just like to migrate PMS and all it’s metadata on DSM 7 RC to Docker and not have to worry about Synology breaking anything.
There is no Docker engine available for DSM 7 at this time.
I had hoped they would be present but, given the changes in DSM 7 , specifically all the new limitations imposed by Synology, I don’t know if they will bother porting to DSM 7 any time soon.
I would very much like to be surprised and proven incorrect in that estimation
Oh so there needs to a specific version of PMS ported to Docker in DSM 7?
You’re missing the point.
There is no Docker on DSM 7 – period.
No Docker – No anything
That’s what I was confused about. I’m using Docker on DSM 7 RC as I type this. I have Adguard Home and Tautulli running since the update to RC
How? did you load it yourself?
