I discovered a flaw in the DS Photo mobile app.
If you login using DNS name, and try to stream your photo to your Chromecast inside the app, you will get a black screen only.
If you login using your Quickconnect name, Chromecast works fine.
(I used my DS211 to test this.)
As, for obvious reasons, I want to use DNS name to my bare-metal XPEnology, I reported this issue to Synology on my DS211 device, but got no reply.
All other DS mobile apps works fine using DNS name, but not DS Photo.
My question(s):
- Am I the only one having this problem?
- Did anyone manage to solve it?
- Are there any other 3rd party alternatives for DS Photo that will work both internal and external with DNS?
For now, I uploaded everything to Google Photo, so able to cast it from there, but would prefer local storing only.
Appreciate any help or hints.
Cheers
