I wasn't clear on what I meant, let's rephrase it.
I personally don't use plex but I think its two main perks are a cleaner library and media availability that is achieved by transcoding if the target device can't read the original file. That's why I would use it for.
AFAIK, the ReadyNAS DLNA server isn't able to do transcoding. So if this transcoding part is needed then, you might want t stick with plex, but if it isn't using the standard DLNA server could be an option.
