Could you add timestamps for these longer videos?
So this one Katie was half way through time stamping, but it looked absurd as there were like 40 time stamps so we gave up
@SpaceRexWill Hahaha I totally get it.
Yeah I get it too....would seem kind of silly. I have no idea if there is an upper limit (practical or otherwise) on the number of timestamps.
Is there a way to get a transcription of this video? Does YT offer that service or ability? This video is a great resource and I've referenced it a couple times already when figuring out what I don't need to have installed.
Hey SpaceRex. I watched a video not long ago where you said you could be hired. I have a couple NASs and haven't gotten around to setting up. A little bit scared of opening ports and doing something wrong. How would I go about contacting you directly?
@@michaelengelby732ou can get a transcript of videos in the description. Some videos (like this one) use automatic captioning though so the transcript could be more or less inaccurate.
Thank you for taking the time to do this. It’s very helpful not only knowing what the various packages are used for but also knowing which ones are most useful. Saves a ton of time vs doing the research on my own. Synology should hire you to do training videos for them 😊
looking forward to the in depth explanations of the useful ones.
Mainly interested in syncing notes and docs on my phone, tablet and pc.
This was extremely helpful. You can waste days just wondering if/what/when you should install an app and what settings to use as well.
Great explanations. I was curious about a few of these after going through the list myself. Super helpful to hear someone else explain it. Thanks!
I’ve been looking for such an overview, thank you!
Thanks for going so deep into Synology
incredibly useful... helped me find Antivirus Essentials
Thank you for explaining all these!
there are few underestimated packages,
DHCP Server can be useful when having a dedicated network port on NAS for direct connection, and be able connect various devices without setting static IPs on every device, or buying another router for that mini network;
Migration Assistant might prove handy when having two NASes and wanting to expand volume with bigger drives, theoretically would be faster and safer to mirror/migrate and then swap drives, having two full copies of data with all the configs
Thank you for taking the time to go through and explain that maze of packages. It was very helpful. I really wanted to use active 365 office backup but it doesn’t work with my 365 personal edition license. I use cloud sync for OneDrive. Do you have a recommendation for backing up outlook files to the Nas?
WOW one of the most informatives videos about DSM that I have seen. THANK you for taking the time and explain all of the apps available. I just subscribe to this channel.
Great overview my friend. Synology installs so many packages I don't think I need, but I fear that uninstalling any of them will remove any dependencies that other package features may be reliant upon without my knowing. Great vid ! Funny how school is so much fun as we get older. In the future, could you consider an overview about SSH (Putty etc.)? 👍👍👍💫💫💫💫💫
How can you possibly only have 63k subscribers?!!! You are a gold mine!
That was brilliant. I bet your tired after all that, but it was so useful. Thank you very much
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks, very helpful video!
the active backup is amazing, its like a paid acronis liense but 100% free, teamed with hyper backup to amazon C2.
Thank you for all your explanations they are very helpfull.
I was wondering if there is a possibility to backup my whole i-Cloud drive instead of google
Thanks for this!
Hi there, thank you so much for this tutorial, your content has been extremely helpful!
I was wondering if there is any tool or feature to batch rename files?
Great overview!
Great info again !!! tks
Good one, many thanks.
Great video. Half of the packages are not available on my DS218j , but it's nice to know abut them anyway.
THANK YOU 🙏
Thanks for the effort. Really useful.
"Dumb smart TV" 🤣
I like to think this gets the point across pretty well!
Great Video thx for your effort.
One question I just set up my first DS and thinking it’s a good idea, startet the Disk Check. Boy that takes forever ( right now it’s at 1day and a couple hours.
I guess there is no way to cancel that right?
Thanks so very much!
Awesome Thank you so much
Thanks!
Thank you!
Excellent video as always! Just something I noticed from watching a lot of them is your breathing sounds mildly labored. Check with your doctor in case there's an underlying condition you may not be aware of.
So if I have two Synology NAS units and I use one strictly for backups (Memory Beta) for my two laptops and one desktop computers and I have a second NAS (Memory Alpha) that will have all of my videos (DVD's and BluRay movies using PLEX), photos, documents, and will also be running some Docker containers. I want to backup Memory Alpha NAS to Memory Beta NAS; which would you recommend I use? Active Backup or Hyper Backup? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each? Hey, I think I just gave you a new video idea.
Great video again! 👍🏻
Can you do a video on how you can create a new backup template and apply it to a large number of PCs. It seems really user unfriendly from what I've seen. Its a shame the backup schedule does not include options like monthly which seems very basic. Thanks.
very helpful
Great video thanks
Due to the subscription for Plex I installed Jellyfin in a docker then installed TailScale and now watch my media from anywhere. Superb package, thankyou for reviewing each app will install a couple now and set them up
I hope there are some Synology deals for prime day.
How are you managing Download Station remotely? DS Get was removed from the Google Play store. Are you sideloading it or are you using a different app? Sideloading works fine, but I was just wondering if there was a newer alternative.
Thanks master!
How can your comment dated 4 days ago, while the release of this video is just 15 minutes ago?
@GeekendZone is a channel member. Channel members get access to my backlog (videos done, but have not been posted yet)

@@SpaceRexWill Wait, so you're telling me it's been four days(Six? I see that pinned comment, Sir.) and you *still* haven't inserted timestamps? :p
In all seriousness though. Your videos helped me a ton with the decision to go with a Synology 3-2-1 backup for a local community service office. Thanks for everything you're doing.
Please note that Media Server has a MAC address access list that lets you control which devices can see your media. Media server is great for allowing devices such as Blu-ray players to play movies stored on your NAS. It is not an uncontrolled free-for-all.
Yes, though you do have to set the limit to only the MAC addresses. By default it is a free for all on the LAN
Quick note about the Surveillance Station camera licenses, DO NOT THROW AWAY THE KEY! For some stupid reason, they are not tied to your account and if, for whatever reason, you reset your NAS, you CANNOT recover those keys unless you held onto the physical card the key came on. It's fucking stupid! I learned this the hard way a couple of days ago.
I would use the Teamviewer Package, but only issue is.
Can only be used when the host is running WINDOWS.
DSM is a linux based OS
I run linux.
Why cant I use linux as my OS?
Hai, I wanna to ask, i'm using DSM 7.2 , web station with extension html successfully read , but why can't use extension php ? it'll show error 500 processing internal
USB Copy - take great care, read the documentation *very carefully* .
Thank you for your explanation
can you help me please ?
i tried many times to open my pic , movies and files from my mobile but not open any of them
what shall i do ?
REMARK
i can open it from my PC but mobile not
Thank you
Is there a synology model that can handle 5 different 4k video hardware transcode to 720p at once?
Is there a conversion app that automatically converts everything to H264 overnight for example? And then later we can watch them converted with Plex?
Fantastic overview! But... you ought to leave the keyboard now and then.😄
Please add chapters for easier navigation. 🙏
Haha they ended up not making since for this video as there’s were too many too close together
Is there any inbuilt file recovery tool or package for Synology?
Use cloud sync or active backup for Microsoft 365 ?
Depends on the use case. Normally ABB though
I bet there are powerful synology servers for virtual machine manager like the FS6400. Yes its expansive and ugly but when you just put 4 drives in it you can also use it just for virtual machine manager.
Hello, has anybody setup nat loopback on their netgear router to access their web sever on their home network ? Looking for help config help
You said that Video Station was a little bit clunky, it's not Video Station is perfect. I love video station, I watch my movies from Synology video station on my smart TV's from any room in my house. Synology Video Station is very easy to set up and use, its much better than Plex. My wife and Kids love it.
CloudSync doesn't wortk with iCloud unfortunately. How would you achieve a sync with iCloud?
Unfortunately apple is a closed garden. No easy way of doing it
@@SpaceRexWillthat’s somehow good in a certain way. Thank you for your reply. But it is taking me ages to move /copy my many photos from Apple Photos to my Synology.
Can you make this for Asustor ?
I've really been struggling to find an AI assisted image file organizer that can organize images by analyzing and tagging if imagery is landscape, has people, has animals, is of a certain style. Even better if it can be manually trained as we use the NAS for storage of all sorts of graphic design. I know such programs exist but because many of our various designs are intellectual property, a local program to do this is ideal and it seems most options are cloud-based only. Anyone have suggestions? Especially since Syn Photos sucks and only works when everything is in ONE folder? (DS220+ w/ DSM 7.2-64570)
Also not against running such an application on a machine, having the organization done, and then uploading back to the NAS post-organization.
I installed Synology Drive after watching your video's, I found it to be very clunky, the restore is such a chore. Needs some work, ended up removing it
Restore for Synology Drive is very poor, really designed for just single files so users themselves can restore them.
Snapshots are by far the best way to do restores
@@SpaceRexWill This is for backing up certain files from my laptop using Synology Drive, the backup works great the restore not so much, will have to keep doing it the manual way for now. Many thanks for coming back to me
I use the free version of FreeFileSync to copy files from the NAS to my DAS and vice versa
Is active insight still free? They were asking for $19.95 for 3 accounts
Jumala ?! :D
Could you make a video explaining how to connect a Synology NAS directly to a Mac, including all the necessary router configurations (my plan is to connect directly when dealing with transfere and edit, and connection online when browsing or dealing with small files), and another video detailing the functions of the Synology Control Panel? If you have time that would be great if not thanks anyways, you do have informative content...thank you
I am new to Home Assistant and looking at old CZcams of Home Assistant installs is very confusing.
If you have done any Home Assistant CZcams videos and included Yaml edit and it is no longer necessary with the new release 2023.7.
Please redo the CZcams video.
Love your channel, just not a joiner.
Thanks, NewBe
