Negatives: I do feel that NASCompares does not really care about answering the most common basic questions. Also, Everyones’ environment is different! I followed this video and I had problems. But a weekend of working through a problem makes you smarter. I do understand that more complicated or “one offs” would be best dealt with offlineĦ: Comments like “I’m so tired of people putting setup tutorial videos together where they are working with an already existing environment and their directions don’t line up with someone who is starting out fresh.” sort of bug me. I think it is fair that you give answers back to the most common questions asked. When I got my NAS and PLEX setup, I used several references to help me with it.ĥ: I do wish that NASCompares would respond to the questions asked. But I do not rely on them for 100 percent of any solution. If you need to be handheld, I do not think a NAS for PLEX is for you.Ĥ: The OP’s vids are very good. If you trying to set up a NAS, you should have at least enough knowledge to handle simple troubleshooting. But that really is not practical for many people that post things to help us out. It never made the “Plex xxx xxx xx” shared folderĢ: To remove a PLEX installation, it is not complicated, right click on it and select “uninstall” (not sure exactly what it says but you get the point I am not doing a tutorial……and I figured it out myselfģ: I would love it to see a video from start to finish with the exact system that I have. Three attempts with the doing from the Package Installation were a failure. My 2 cents on the video and people’s comments:ġ: If running DSM 7.xx I suggest downloading from Synology and using that file. We do not offer services like that ourselves.
