Upgraded to 6.6.0 on RN214
I have just upgraded to 6.6.0
Now I find that Plex has an error
"Application failed to initialize."
Empy resource error. Bad NML call.
Everything was fine before upgrade. ?
I have the latest plex.
Rebooting your NAS and waiting a handful of minutes or so should lead to the problem being resolved.

Hello error404,
Plex broke on 6.6.0. PlexPass 1.2.1 build is available that fix this.
Please see this article from Plex Media: http://www.videohelp.com/software/Plex/version-history
Regards,
I would not of upgraded if I had known this.
I now have to buy plex pass that I did not have to do before,
Now my whole media system is down
Unhappy

It would have been better if this had been known by Netgear before the release happened.
But you do have several options while you are waiting for plex to fix it:
-temporarily run plex on a PC, mapping the data volume of the RN214 to a drive letter
-switch to ReadyDLNA for now
-get plexpass for a month or so
Ok its been some days now since I posted about Plex not working on RN214 version 6.6.0
I have seen plex forums trying to sort this out.
I understand this being a third party addon to readynas.
But at the time I bought my readynas it was marketed as a great plex server.
Oddly I haven't seen any mention of work on trying to fix this, be it readynas or plex on these forums
I do suspect alot of people have bought the 214 as a plex server like I did.
Are you actually in contact with plex about this.
Do you guys talk ?
I too was burned by this update. It's taking some time to address the changes needed by Plex Server. Meanwhile, I'm down...my ReadyNAS built for media streaming sits idle.
Thanks for the reply jpcarro
Glad to see its not only me on readynas forums,
That takes the time to post here about this issue,
I don't know why, but there seems to be more activity by RN214 users on plex forum than here.
Maybe thats a note for this forum about its users preference and usage of the RN214
