AlexPresso · 2022-04-06T22:56:19Z

Same for me.

AlexPresso · 2022-04-07T07:35:56Z

Strange, I need to investigate

volkzp · 2022-04-07T07:36:43Z

Is the video codec H.265 (HEVC) ?

If you are asking about Advanced Media Extensions, then yes. AME with HEVC codec support

AlexPresso · 2022-04-07T07:38:16Z

Yes, I'm asking specifically for this video codec, because it's a known problem I'm working on for a long time (see: #16 )

Fabian1601 · 2022-04-07T08:04:32Z

I have the problems also with movies that worked fine under 7.0 with your patch

zhonghaoyun240 · 2022-04-07T13:28:41Z

so？time？

AlexPresso · 2022-04-07T23:01:47Z

so？time？

What ? Really ? You're asking it like I owe you any kind of service. I don't.
Be kind, let me find some time to fix it, or fix it yourself.

findstevehere · 2022-04-09T02:22:18Z

so？time？

seriously dude?

findstevehere · 2022-04-09T05:08:57Z

always getting:
Missing SynoCommunity ffmpeg package, please install it and re-run the patcher.

Fabian1601 · 2022-04-09T10:17:28Z

strange, I get no message that something is missing.
the patch runs cleanly through

AlexPresso · 2022-04-09T11:59:54Z

always getting:
Missing SynoCommunity ffmpeg package, please install it and re-run the patcher.

That is strange, have you successfully installed the package using the package manager ?

DSM 7.1 is not yet available for my DS218Play, I'll wait until monday to see if there's an auto update, and start investigating. If I still have no update until monday, I'll manually update it anyway.

mblanco4x4 · 2022-04-09T14:12:40Z

Same here, manually updated to DSM 7.1 then repatched. Videos without dts seem to work but WITH dts it just spins and never begins playback. Was working great before. I will experiment some more.

Thanks!

Synology model: DS918+
SynoCommunity FFMPEG version: 4.3.3-39
VideoStation version: 3.0.3-2084
Advanced Media Extensions version: 2.0.0-1017

findstevehere · 2022-04-09T14:57:13Z

What is the procedure then if I'm missing something? I try to both with audio station stopped or running. And with fmmpg pack installed

Further testing, playback hangs with eac3 & dts audio streams. DSM 7.1 patched.

Thanks!

findstevehere · 2022-04-09T19:07:22Z

I had it patched before the update successfully but have not been able to do so again. But if it's not working anyways I guess there's no point right?

For now yes, I'll fix it, then we'll have a look on why it tells you don't have SynoCommunity ffmpeg :)

Thanks!

I have the same issue here. Syno was patched before on DSM 7.0.1. After update to DSM 7.1 and re-run the patcher, the playback with eac3 and dts audio streams hangs.

But besides that, thank you for your amazing work!

OnePunchMan007 · 2022-04-21T00:40:33Z

First thanks for this amazing patcher !
I just want to say it doesn't work for me also in 7.1

findstevehere · 2022-04-21T10:01:03Z

Alex, after reading that weird comment from [zhonghaoyun240] I just wanted to let you know how much the community apreciates all the effort you are putting into this in your free time, and how gratful we are because thanks to people like you with the knwoledge and willingness to share with others without expecting anything in return, we can fully enjoy the feaures of the fantastic DSM software.

Thanks a lot Alex, and keep doing this at your own pace, whenever you have time avaiable and feel like it. And if at some point in time you decide that you can't or don't want to mantaining your patch any more, we'll totally understand and still be grateful for what you have been sharing with us all this time.

Feedback this information for everyone who use DSM 7.1.

oh thank you so much, really appreciate step by step... happy to collate or put these all together for others if I can get to work for me. Will post any issues or confusion if they pop up. cheers

AlexPresso · 2022-04-23T13:29:07Z

@OnePunchMan007 Thanks for the infos, I'll have a look at it and try to implement these steps in the patch

iuliangcata · 2022-04-23T22:07:17Z

I can confirm this is working for me too. Hoping for Alex's version with the possibility of rollback.

findstevehere · 2022-04-25T11:42:22Z

AlexPresso

not sure how many times I've reported this, but Alex script gets an error that I need to install ffmpeg.. which I have installed already.

findstevehere · 2022-04-25T11:56:24Z

always getting:
Missing SynoCommunity ffmpeg package, please install it and re-run the patcher.

That is strange, have you successfully installed the package using the package manager ?

DSM 7.1 is not yet available for my DS218Play, I'll wait until monday to see if there's an auto update, and start investigating. If I still have no update until monday, I'll manually update it anyway.

huh? You mean did I install ffmpeg through Package manager? yes. is there some other way. Anyways. there's so many different threads now with references to 3 different peoples patches that it's nuts. Or reference to original patch directions in comments from 2 years ago with VS 6. whatever instructions followed by 7xxx instructions. All over the map, so hardly helpful especially with repeatedly getting Alex error stating "install ffmpeg"

sure good luck with that when Alex patch gets error: "install ffmpeg" and then next command results in "no such file or directory"

It would be so nice if someone could provide termninal instructions for mac that work,. cheers

OnePunchMan007 · 2022-04-25T18:51:46Z

@findstevehere i think you should create another issues because it's seems diffrent. Have you try ot upatch everything then uninstall evertyhing and then resinstall (Adanced Media Extensions , Video Station and ffmpeg from th0ma7 - https://packages.synocommunity.com/)

Hi Bro, that's very useful for DSM7.1, thanks so much!!!

The patch from DarkNebular doesn't work when medias are both encoded with HEVC and DTS or EAC3

but I also install ffmpeg from package centre but not through a manual install, just select from community

AlexPresso · 2022-05-04T09:33:51Z

The problem is that you're trying to install the patch on your Mac. You need to connect to the NAS through SSH before you run these commands (follow the help link on the repo)

findstevehere · 2022-05-17T03:12:05Z

sudo mv /var/packages/CodecPack/target/bin/ffmpeg41 /var/packages/CodecPack/target/bin/ffmpeg41.orig

i just get error there is no file or directory. seems ffmpeg doesnt exist in my root folder or whatever
