It plays various formats without any stuttering and flickering.įor some kind of a reason ATV4K has problems with the 4K HDR and frame rate when playing 4K video through AVR. I want to play 4K video from my NAS and I found out that my TV DS Video App performs the best with this task. Multimedia Streamer: Apple TV 4K, DS Video App, Plex App TV: Samsung Q90R, Tizen, DS Video App, Plex App NAS: DS218+, latest DSM, DS Video Server Anybody else seeing this and if so is anybody has anyone been able to resolve the issues with Synology NAS, Plex and the Apple TV 4K.ĤK Streaming and subtitle settings - DS218+ - Q90R - Apple TV 4K Hi, 22 and there’s no improvement with the Apple TV 4K. While I really am in Apple aficionado I’ve given up on Plex and AppleTV 4. The Amazon fire stick is also $31 compared to the Apple TV costĪnd works without a hiccup on any size video I’m trying to watch through Plex. In trying to troubleshoot my Synology prior to buying the fire stick I thought that my NAS was the issue - now I realize it’s actually the Apple TV 4K version one and two that is.

While I don’t like the user interface Plex works perfectly with my Synology NAS.

I’ve given up on playing Plex through my Apple TV 4K and I’ve moved to an Amazon fire stick 4K max. I have a 64 bit five Bay Nas they were perfectly with the original Apple TV boxes until 4K and it would transcode any media file without issue prior to ATV 4K– I have both a AtV 4K 1st and 2nd generation unit. I get video lagging, buffering & error just saying my processor speed isn’t fast enough and sometimes even not all my videos show up on the Plex app. Ever since I’ve upgraded to the 4K Apple TV the Plex app works horribly.
