Hi all:)
After a little bit of reverse engineering I was able to bypass the license checking mechanism introduced in DSM 6 successfully with a simple two line binary patch of synocodectool and therefore enable transcoding without a valid serial number[emoji4].
I wrote a little script to make it easier for everyone. For more information please check the github repo: https://github.com/likeadoc/synocodectool-patch
HOWTO:
1.
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/likeadoc/synocodectool-patch/master/patch.sh
2.
chmod +x patch.sh
3.
./patch.sh
Done:)
If things go wrong simply restore the original file:
./patch.sh -r
Cheers
