- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredThere is Plex for your NAS but you would likely find that many of your videos would need to be transcoded to play on the ChromeCast and the NV+ v2 cannot transcode.
- pjkais2003AspirantWhere can I get plex for my NAS? Also what would you reccomend as a good upgrde from the nv+ v2?
- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredOn plex.tv go to downloads. You want the NetGear ARM 5.x build.
Good models to consider would be the 314, 316 and 516.
