I enjoy using it and have it setup on my TV and tablets. Stream all of our local content and have the option for hardware transcoding when needed. I don't really use it to stream outside my house though so i can't comment on that. I have used the offline mode a couple times and it worked fine. Occasionally has issues logging out on its own, and then refreshing certificates whenever my let's encrypt renews, but overall it works well for my family and me.

A lot of potential features that often do not work. The search on Android Tv does not work: I click on my mobile on the textbox, type the name of the movie, the result does not come out. Another problem: you cannot download subtitles or locate in the synology. Often it freezes and I cannot see movies anymore unless I move forward the time line. I cannot delete movies I saw. The scraper is not reliable.

Really like it. it does what it's supposed to grants me access to the server but you can only play one file at a time and it doesn't seem to want to let me create new playlists. And man it would be wonderful if it will just continue to play the next file of a folder but it doesn't so I want to give it a 3.5 but rounds up to four so there you go

Works wonderfully. I setup my ds video station though, correctly configured the settings, mapped out where my videos were, customized permissions, and after that, this works wonderfully. Think "Netflix" except you run it. For videos I have the ds video load and play videos through my player pro, but you can also use vlc media player too. Else your at the mercy of the synology Nas and its encoding on the fly processing power.

Change 3 star to 5. The app showed the wrong filenames e1,e1,e1,e2,e2...etc instead of Season1-Episode 1 making it difficult to view tv shows in the correct order. I change the library from "TV Show" to "Movies" and the app now shows the correct filename. Plays perfectly using built in media player under Android 12 on Galaxy tab

The Android and Android TV app flat out don't work. "Unknown error". I'm streaming my media using a DS920+, latest os. Trying to stream to Galaxy Note 20 Ultra on Android 11 with April security and Shield TV version 8.2.2. Streaming works on my 2020 Samsung TV and via the web. Very disappointed. [UPDATE] My Shield TV seems to magically start working today. No upgrades. My phone, now updated to the latest May security update, still will not play movies.

App can't play a lot of media types or popular encodings like x265. Also you can't associate your subtitles from within the player. Not even an option to search. Connects to my box fine and streams are stable. But kinda pointless when half my movie library can't play through this.

It was great until it stopped letting me cast from my phone. I can still watch from the app, but anytime I try to connect to one of my chromecast, it turns off the app. It's very frustrating to use now. They need to patch and fix the problem, or I won't be using it anymore.
