Synology Apps needed

[Fred AUSTRIA]

I buy a new LG 55 C7V and it is a smart TV, but ther is no way to connect to my Synology NAS.

I want connect to my recorder films on my NAS, but i can not see any App to represent a solution.

 

Is ther any way to connect to my NAS with the LG C7 with the new WEBOS 3.5?

I would recommend Plex Media Server for the back-end if your Synology NAS is capable of running it, which available  from their Packages or direct from Plex.  There is a Plex webOS client available for the front-end.

Currently, to my knowledge, there is no way to just browse to a file share (if that is how you have things set up) and just play a file from it.

You could also look at using DLNA which both devices should support.

Any  news from Lg or any developer about synology app?

DS Video for LG WebOS 3.5 would be nice...

Just install media server app on your Synology and your tv will pick it up in photos and videos via dlna.

Works fine for me

Incredible lg have not yet a ds app, Samsung, Sony ... every tvs sellers have it.

plex works With freezes and the dlna is the past.

really bad, lg. In the store are a Lot of absurds apps, rt , red bull, son tv? ... but some necessary like ds Video no. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Same answer like watcher_00...runs very smoothly with Synology and media server activated. I have the NAS and TV both wired to the same router by the way. Good luck !

On the contraryy...also the standard 'music' app can browse the Synology NAS and play all formats, compressed as well as lossless. Good luck!

I have a DS1815+ and it’s working perfectly with my C7V. I enjoy 4K by installing media server on the Synology and browsing with the video and audio app of the TV. 

Don’t forget to set the correct shares on the Syno!

Great news friends! We just don't need anymore DS Vídeo (too many years preying to release this shit), now something really better is available, please install the emby server on the Diskstation, and the Emby app on your LG Smart TV (webos 3.0 or later), just one word: FANTASTIC!

P.s. Plex runs as a vomit.

also looking for some native webos app. for public media, got Plex. much better than Emby (more subtitles, CC subtitles, higher reliability, no crashes, better UI, way faster indexing). but i dont want to put private media there. for that purpose, i want separate app.

I need DS Video before I purchase an LG TV, make it happen LG.
