I would like to install Serviio media server on my R102 NAs but it is not available in the app store

Question

I really dont like the Nero media home app and have used Serviio for years with great sucess, am now setting up a new R102 NAS for all my media but I cant find the Serviio app in the app store, I have looked on the Serviio site and there are several for different NAS devices but Netgear Ready NAS is not listed.

Which version do I install and what else do I need to install to make it work?

Hello&nbsp;Gazzacoop,

&nbsp;

It means there is no author or developer submitted this app yet. I recommend adding this as a suggestion at the&nbsp;idea exchange&nbsp;board. Adding kudos to the ideas will help as development team will be reviewing the post that has the most kudos for considering it to add to the product's future functionality. We appreciate your contribution to the community!

Thanks JennC,&nbsp;I have added the request, in the mean time do you know if there is a way to install the new2 Serviio V1.8 to the Nas?

Hello Gazzacoop ,

&nbsp;
We do not have any ways we can offer to install the app to the NAS. A developer need to submit the app&nbsp;to Netgear for review before it can be publish as an available app for the NAS.

Thanks Marty_M,&nbsp;I have to say that so far the whole Netgear Ready NAS experience is a dissapointment, I have purchased this as a home media server with the view of adding Serviio as the Server software (my fault for not doing my home work), While I can happily store my media, I cant actually get a server that is worth a pinch loaded. I have tried the Nero server in the app section, and well.... its crap,&nbsp;my samsung TV's&nbsp;see it but cannot see any content that is in the libraries,&nbsp;and there are literallly two things you can do, change the nickname and add a&nbsp;library, thats it, nothing else, wow, it is mind boggling that Nero even have a business with such a dimwit server that does not work. And quite frankly, why dont Netgear dont get off their ass and start some partnerships with some decent developers, it would enhance their product significantly and make for some happy users!!&nbsp;My two cents worth.&nbsp;G&nbsp;&nbsp;
