Hi Stephen,

Thanks for replying.

After many frustrating hours of searching i did kinda come to the conclusion that it was no longer supported.

If there is anyone out there with the correct version i would be so grateful if they could provide a link or Maybe Email it to me?

I have Plex Server running on my PC at the moment but wanted a full time solution - hence this cheap NAS drive.

I would rather not Mount the NAS as it will mean the PC running all the time which i dont really want to do.

Kind regards

Shep

Hi Shep

I've just seen your post and so maybe too late to help you but I do have a copy of Plex that can run on your ReadyNAS Duo v2 because that is the very same hardware I run and my old version of Plex is running perfectly.

OK, the version of Plex you want is PlexMediaServer-0.9.16.6.1993-5089475-arm.bin, which is the final version of Plex made for the Duo v2.

If you still want this copy of PMS then drop me a post and link to the site where you want me to upload the copy.

Later.

Hi UK Bob

I would appreciate a copy of the PMS version for a ReadyNAs Duo v2.

Can send you a Dropbox link for you to upload.

Hi Bob, I would like to give it a try on the NAS before resorting to a separate PC.

  Hi Roxy
  
  Believe it or not, I sent the download site to you for PlexMediaServer-0.9.16.6.1993-5089475-arm.bin yesterday, i.e. 30th December, but it seems that something went wrong with this forum's reply facility.
  
  Anyway, the site where you can download PMS from is as follows:-

  Happy New Year and Happy Plexing

Hi (all)
I also have a now dusty Ready Nas Duo V2
RAIDiator 5.3.13
I have been running Plex Server 0.9.16.4 (actually without any issues for a long time)
but I would like to make sure its as up to date as possible.
Is it worth updating to PlexMediaServer-0.9.16.6.1993-5089475-arm.bin as I haven't had any issues, and if so (maybe some extra features or something) ?
If there is a sensible reason to stick that last version on.. how do I actually do it ?

Thanks for the time reading this.

  If your Duo v2 ain't broke I wouldn't fix it. You're not going to gain a lot with such a small update. You can see what's changed look at the Plex Media Server Release Notes
  
  However you're going to get further and further behind from what Plex has to offer now, so you may wish to plan to buy a new ReadyNAS that can run the latest Plex Media Server.
