Synology NAS Setup Guide 2022 #4 - Music Audio, Indexing, Sharing and Streaming over DLNA

You should do a tutorial on how to set up LDAP on a Synology

Doing good with the Synology in depth DSM7 user experience

You have any answers why the DS audio app keeps trying to quick connect to my old DS216j and refuses to find my DS920+ ?

This series has been a lifesaver for a new NAS owner. Thanks!

Many thanks for all your content. Quick introduction: just got the 1621+ with the E10M20-T1 CARD - on which I have attached 2 X NVMe M2 ( 2228 ) of 1 TB each ( PCIe Gen 3 ). I stiil have the front NVMe slots available.

Question: I’m planning to order another 2 NVMe cards of 1 TB each - this time the 4th PCIe Generation - is it worth it and will make it a difference to the overall performance of the NAS unit ?

Additional information: running 32 GB RAM on it with 2 x 12 TB HDD and another 4 x 3 TB HDD - planning to configure it as a RAID 10.
Mostly video editing / video content creation & photography to perform & storage on it.

Much appreciated! Thank you.

We can’t access #5 or # 6, it states video is private.

Great video, please Do a video for ebooks . Best way to organize 1000s books and access to them though mobile devices .

would be nice if Synology fixed broken .CUE sheets with FLAC files in DSM 7 Audio Station :/

Any insights on how to sync playlists between devices?

Thanks for the video. A similar question to the one I posted in Part 3’s comments. Whilst this shows how to share files once on the NAS, I’m unsure how to move the files across? Is it a case of exporting from say iTunes, coping over the the NAS and then indexing? I’m unsure how to preserve any “play lists” etc. already created in iTunes?

Question, please: Is it ok to run BOTH iTunes server AND Media Server at the same time? Or do I need to disable parts of one (e.g. music) to use the other - or anything like that? Thank you, as the others have said, for these great videos, which have been incredibly useful in helping me set up my first big boy NAS!

Great video. I set up videos station with my friends' drums covers. However, I went through and marked my favorites. is there a way to tell it to just show/play them? TY

Hey! excellent information! very useful. It's unfortunate that Synology spends so much time having great tools but with such an ugly and simple interface. They should dedicate themselves to modernizing their image. Especially the apps for phones are extremely basic.

I have my Synology DS923+ streaming to all my devices via DLNA for months. Last week I bought a TP-Link router that has the Link Aggregation feature, so, I enabled it, connected the 2 cables to my Synology and enabled the Link Aggregation on the Synology, creating the Bond 1 (LAN1 + LAN2) interface. Since then, the DLNA service doesn't work. When I go to Media Server, the network interface field is not available anymore. So I deleted the Bond 1 on the Synology but kept both cables connected and went to the Media Server and defined LAN2 as the network interface. Now the service sometimes works but sometimes doesn't. I tested in all the devices I used to stream. Any advice? Thanks in advance.
