ReadyNAS PRO 4 play 1080p through PLEX?
Can the PLEX addon play 1080p without transcoding to a local media PC?

I don't use a PC (Mac Only here) but I believe the PC client works the same as the Mac client in that all decoding of the media is done on the client - not the server. (ie DirectPlay is used for all media).
Transcoding is really only for those clients with limited horsepower or possibility to support all media formats (eg Android, iOS devices etc)
So if nothing plays you have a more fundamental issue and I'd suggest you visit the Plex forum to get support: http://forums/plexapp.com
There is a specific Windows Client forum there
