I tend to run in the opposite direction when I see anything android.Anybody has any experience with DS on Android?![]()
The only thing that drawn my attention was the low cost for the Fire HD 10 tablet - I realized that I was using my now dead iPad only for watching videos at home.. So no 400$ to spend on a new one this time, so I'm trying that Android tablet and it's been great so far... great except thatI tend to run in the opposite direction when I see anything android.
Thx WST16, but I'd really like to stay in the VS environment on all my devices if possible. One good reason for this is that this way I can start replaying a video on any device and VS will have saved my last played position on the server each time.Did you try VLC? You might need to install Media Server.
Thx tb123! Indeed I just did yesterday. Will keep you guys posted when they respondWorks fine on my iPad, doesn’t work on my Galaxy S9.
Have you reported it to Synology?
I guess I'll have to keep remembering the mm:ss for the next playback! It's one way of fighting alzheimer I guess!"Currently we don't support to keep/resume the last position in a video playing on the DS video for Android or other 3rd party players at this moment (MX Player/VLC Player). This will be improved in the future update.Unfortunately I can't currently give a timeline for its inclusion."
Or you could use Plex. A much better experience... more codec support too, however hardware transcoding requires Plex Pass.I guess I'll have to keep remembering the mm:ss for the next playback!
Been there, done that!Or you could use Plex. A much better experience... more codec support too, however hardware transcoding requires Plex Pass.
Indeed Plex has been the option for me for quite a while, but the free features of DS (like download offline on mobile) and other irritating stuff in Plex made me do the jump a year ago. Plex is now much more "monthly subscription" oriented then before to get the basic stuff working. And Plex is not without its flaws itself, wouldn't you say![]()
Yes.Syno's official response:

I suppose it has its challenges to track what is attached and keep this updated, esp. with the range of spec of the NAS.the re-indexing problem of media on external drives (when ejected)

It's horses for courses as the saying goes (which is apt since we're in Royal Ascot week).My suggestion would be to move away from VS. If plex is not an option maybe Emby will be a better choice.
Impressive. You’re very advanced Mr. @fredbert. The external disk is on ups, it’s just when I need to restart the NAS, firmware updates mostly. Although it seems we’ll be doing less of that the way things are going!I suppose it has its challenges to track what is attached and keep this updated, esp. with the range of spec of the NAS.
I think I’ll be testing emby on my DDSM soon.My suggestion would be to move away from VS. If plex is not an option maybe Emby will be a better choice.
