General discussion on LMS for OS6
Please discuss LMS for OS6 here. Continues from http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=155&t=70937
Never mind. I answered my own question.
Here's a step-by-step for anyone who wants to install the latest and greatest LMS on their OS 6 ReadyNAS:
1. Install S-P's Logitech Media Server 1.0.6 add-on from the ReadyNAS add-on directory.
2. Install the LMS of your choice (e.g., 7.7, 7.8, 7.9) from the nightly pages by manually uploading the .deb file.
3. Install the lms_1.0.8_all.deb from S-P's Dropbox to bring the LMS app to the current version.
This is working brilliantly for me, even with multiple plugins enabled. LMS is speedy, and the lag is gone from the ReadyNAS admin GUI. Can't even fathom why I upgraded to UE.

This no longer seems to work with 6.4.1. I get "Cannot install...." errors when I upload LMS.
UPDATE: Well, it seems to be working now. If you follow the instructions above, you will get "Cannot install" errors, but strangely enough, it seems to do it anyway. I had to go through the process a couple of times, but at last, I have LMS 7.9 and ReadyNAS App 1.08.
I must be doing something wrong.
I install lms 1.0.6 from app page.
I try to install 7.8.0 - get error message can't install.
repeat a few times, no success.
I then try to upgrade to 1.0.8. still same error message. try a few times - no success. All it manages to do is uninstall 1.0.6.
Did you hard/soft reset between installs? Any other hints?
Hey everyone. Has anyone managed to do this on 6.4.2? When I upgraded, it borked LMS and now, I can't get the later versions working anymore.
Nope. Nothing works for me. I have to rely on the LMS running on my computer.
Well, I at least have the original 1.04 working after trying several other versions...so I at least got that far.
It sure would be nice if Netgear would spend a little time with all their add-ons as most are really long in the tooth. Other NAS manufacturers seem to keep their apps much more up to date.
