plex

I've read about people doing it but haven't still seen any explanation (for mortals) how to actually do it, as simple as possible. Marius described a way of doing it exporting the docker-settingsfile and modifiying it but I miss some details to go through with it (guide refers to elements that'...

I really want to get better with Docker, and I've tried following a few guides online for installing Plex as a Docker-container on my DS918+, but I can't get it running. The Docker-Plex log always ends up with "critical: libusb_init failed" and I can't access any webui. I've got a normal...

Jellyfin is a Free Software Media System that puts you in control of managing and streaming your media. It is an alternative to the proprietary Emby and Plex, to provide media from a dedicated server to end-user devices via multiple apps. More on their site: https://jellyfin.org/ UI Docker...

I recently recevied an email about Plex providing free live TV streaming now. Though, neither in plex.web, nor in the Android client I see evidence of it. I am running PMS 1.20.0.3133-fede5bdc7 (which commes with plex.web 4.34.3) and the Android client 8.3.1.19108(d68ac64). Is it available...

Hi all, ive been playing with Docker on my 918+ recently and came across xTeVe. I've installed it and can run it using @Rusty's guide here. 2 questions: Does Plex still let me use xTeVe? Not sure why it is not adding? As xTeVe is at that address on my LAN and the container is running, I can...

I am new to Plex. I've viewed some YouTube Video on installing Plex on Synology NASs. But how does one view the media on Plex on one's TV? My TV is over 10 years old and very dumb. And I don't watch movies on tablet or phones. So how to view on TV?

Got an audio file and a cue sheet that identifies the tracks? Yep Audio Station supports that but Plex doesn't, and has been a requested feature for a few years. Not that it's overly gapless between tracks: which is not ideal for a concert recording. I find have a Plex library with remember...

I'm sure this has been asked a lot, but I couldn't find anything concrete. My samsung tv won't play dts (yeah, I know), but all my uhd files are dts audio. Rather than re-coding all of them, would plex (or video station) be able to transcode on the fly so they would play on the samsung (through...

Hi there, presently I have a ds413j with 4x 4tb wd red in shr, hard wired (cat 4) to an old Samsung TV. I primarily store 1080p films and stream them to the TV by manually scrolling through folders, or sometimes using dsvideo app on my phone (hit and miss whether it works or not). The Samsung is...

I found a control to set this to work across all files on my Amazon Firestick, and playback is now great across my whole home video library. However, on my main Plex Server which I access by clicking from the Synology DSM web page, I can only seem to auto-adjust quality on individual home video...

Hi there, I tried following a youtube tutorial to set up plex. All was exactly per the tutorial until I agreed to the offer to go premium. So then I needed to work out how to link my NAS (which I have done) and then to add libraries (which I have done). My media folders (for example, the...

... for Plex Pass users. Got an email newsletter about these two Plex Labs mobile apps. Dash is a mobile server manager/reporting app and Amp is a standalone mobile music player. https://www.plex.tv/en-gb/blog/two-delicious-new-apps-from-plex-labs/

Hey guys, i have some dilemma here. I want to buy a Synology NAS, specifically DS220j and I want to use it to store all my data, photos and family videos. I know and I am using Plex Media Server on my laptop to cast videos and films to my Chromecast and it works well, but I want to store all...
