If using DS FILE or DS CAM, I’m using synology to play videos. I may have edited those videos on Premiere Pro SC6, but accessed via DS FILE. YES, PPRO CS6 is old, but does the work. DS CAM is strictly (now: Thanks 7.2.2!) H264, from security cameras. I assume DS FILE is also throttled. My exports for quality (and other reasons) are H264.
Now, If this file is just being imported: to a multi drive Raid0 “on it’s way to edit”, I’m not playing the video, it’s just going to edit, as a file transfer, and on the edit system there are all manner of codecs for use there—once it’s there.
I have never (Ever) seen a company who claims to do be able to do video, intentionally degrade it’s product by downgrading it’s codec list—Except Synology
 
Interested in the trying something else than Plex. But Plex is the only one afaik that doesn't need to reencode movies with bitmapped (pgs) subtitles.

Grafana cannot pull any data by itself. Are you running node-exporter on your Synology? Maybe SNMP-based...
