I play on buying a 214play and a 414play. I do hope that Plex includes support for this soon.
Joined plexpass today, please make it worth it *wink wink*
I understand you're being facetious, and to your point, I've also "liked" this post to let the devs know I'd love to see this in Plex, but as others have pointed out, I think we're not going to see this until ffmpeg supports it as Plex more or less uses that with some custom patches. I also think you'll be more than happy with your PlexPass purchase even if this never makes it in. It has some totally badass features for which I happily paid the 75 bucks.
To be clear, I'm not chastising anyone, just tagging the end of this thread with another reminder that there are some prerequisites/blockers to this support getting into Plex.
With all that being said, I have a DS214play and I'm hoping beyond hope this support gets in sooner than later :-D
another hoper : )

Owning a DS214Play too, everything on this crazy little box is fast and reactive.
Transcoding for Plex is the very last missing feature...

Looking forward for this feature too. Great hardware and great software has to meet to create the great solution ;).
The moment plex confirms to implement this, I will buy a DS414!
Just joined Plexpass yesterday. Hoping my little contribution helps the devs consider this and other requests
However, very happy with Plex & 214play so far!
+1 for HW transcoding.
This feature request reached 200 likes! Now it MUST be implemented :)

+1 for hardware transcoding support!
+1 for this! World make me love plex even more!!
I recently recommended Plex to one of my colleague and he likes it. He is planning to buy a new Synology NAS but unfortunately I couldn't recommend him one supported by Plex for transcoding. I have a DS214Play and I also would love to see Full hardware transcoding supported.
Fingers crossed while you keep doing a great job
+1 For another DS214play owner!
Liked OP, +1. Long time Plex user on a DS211j which is getting replaced this week with a DS214play.
I just gave you guys $75 because your software does rock... but I really want the transcoding features of the play/evansport integrated into Plex.

Synology user here for many years, I'm looking to eventually replace my aging PMS server (old Core 2 Duo laptop) and I think a Synology box like the DS214play would be ideal if Plex can take advantage of the hardware decoding.
If a lot of additional work is required you might consider making this enhanced Synology-only PMS build a separate one-off purchase. Pretty please!

Plan on upgrading to this before the year is out would love to see this.
Switched to a Plex Pass for life; so a +1 from me as well :)
