- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredI've just reported this issue to WhoCares? The arm add-on had "arch=x86" in the header by mistake not "arch=arm" in the header which would explain why it refused to install. I don't know if there are any other issues.
- spinaltap1AspirantI have reported the 'bad architecture' issue on the Plex forum, and the reply was...
'The dev's know about this one - .9.6.4 should be the latest version that "works". They need people on vacation to return before it can be fully fixed'. - FerdinandAspirantgood, thx very much guys!
- Shung1AspirantI haven't found a current thread for Plex Media Server on ARM machines (Duo v2), so have the add on people released a working version for us yet?

- Shung1AspirantThank you very much for the link. Looking forward to another learning experience with this!
- iTrooperAspirantIs it just me, or do you find that it crashes, or lags out after a while? I'm running the NV+ V2.
I ended up installing Plex on my PC, building up the DB and transferring over to my NAS afterwards, cuz it was taking bloody eons to scan on the NAS and would choke up after a while. - axg20202Aspirant@iTrooper - yes, I have the same experience. The smallest operation seems to take forever. Restarting the add-on is sometimes required for major db changes. To be honest, I find Plex on Duo2 too clunky for use. I access videos on my Duo2 using XBMC (on a jailbroken Apple TV), or using my Ipad, so running a Plex server on the NAS is not really essential for me. Would be nice to have the slick interface and artwork features of Plex but I don't really think the Duo2 is capable of running it properly.
- spinaltap1AspirantFrom this thread, it looks as though Synology are implementing direct streaming to Apple TV.
Perhaps Netgear will follow.....(wishful thinking).
http://tinyurl.com/anplw6m - OzAyAspirantHi,
I have a ReadyNAS Duo v.2 (arm chipset). I want to use PMS on NAS device. When I load PMS, it works fine but it couldn't find any metadata for my files.
I created a file (folders) for the movies, music's and pictures. I pressed the refresh button periodically but noting change. I found a file on the correct section and correct name but without info and cover.
When I load PMS on my w7 pc, everything works fine. I found a file on the correct section and correct name with info and cover. I like it.
My ReadyNAS works on my network which with 1Gbit ports. I use unlimited internet. When I check firmware for the NAS, it is update. It means internet is ok but is it possible, PMS couldn't find internet port on ReadyNAS?
How can I check it? How can I set it?
or anybody knows that problem?
Sorry my language,
Thanks,
