Kamele0N Posted August 23, 2021 Share #1 Posted August 23, 2021 Hey. I have a problem with Photostation6 installed on my two different Xpenology servers One is DS3615xs (i3-550) and second is DS918+ (i5-4760K). Both are running flawlessly except for, that I cant watch movies on a TV from a /photo folder. IF I move those (te same) movies in "test" folder under /video folder they are then seen/recognized by my TV and are also playable normaly.......so my LCD TV is not representing a problem here! I have also tried transcoded test movies under /photo folder into different formats (.m4v, .mp4, .avi, .mkv...) with a handbrake programm......but for no avail! They are seen only in /video folder Checked all supported formats of Photostation6 and all should be fine.........but it doesnt work out for me! Photostation6 is the latest..... ver: 6.8.14-3501..... Should I uninstall it....and manually install with some previous version? (If....Wich one?) Tnx for the answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted August 24, 2021 Share #2 Posted August 24, 2021 Seems like maybe the player your TV uses needs videos to be in a /video folder? You say they are only "seen" in /video folder. If they don't even show up as a file in the /photo folder... I'm thinking perhaps its a path issue with your TV video player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamele0N Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) TV (Samsung Ue46es5500) sees all the folders & subfolders in /photo folder.... But it recognise only photos.....movies in the same folder can not be seen.....unless if I move them to /video/.... EDIT: tried to install previous versions of photostation from synology archive....they ate unsupported on my DS918+.... Only the current version or above can be installed (above....is for dsm 6.2.4 wich is not supported with a current loader) Edited August 24, 2021 by Kamele0N Edit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamele0N Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share #4 Posted August 24, 2021 It seems that "Media server" is the one to blame... https://community.synology.com/enu/forum/1/post/140163 But it doesnt have many settings... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
