I recently acquired a second hand DS216j with 6TB (SHR1 so only 3TB is usable). I moved all my Google Photos images and videos onto it, but now when I access it through QuickConnect it loads them really slow, the videos are constantly buffering and when they load they have a messed up framerate (really jittery). I have a 500 fibre connection and the station is connected to the router through an ethernet cable. Any idea how I could possibly fix this? Thanks

    This one guy on reddit said:

    It definitely cannot be the NAS. The NAS does not do any sort of transcoding when you play a video using the Synology Photos App. Try a lower res/bitrate video, if that plays fine, then your internet upload speed is the problem.

    Is there anything to it? Is it possible that the Play series is for the Plex functionality?
