DSM 6 to DSM 6 - Upgrade Emby Server 4.6.7.0 =to=> 4.7.11.0

[westhill 5]

Current setup
Synology 920+ / DSM 6.2.4-25556 Update 5 =to=> Update 6
EMBY Paid: 4.6.7.0 =to=> 4.7.11.0
Clients = IOS, Shield, Android client (3.2.92) and Android TV (2.0.83g registered), all local access
Not sure if transcoding occurs, it is setup, never checked if it transcodes to the Android or IOS clients

I setup this up 18M ago and it has been an awesome setup.
I recall doing a manual install of Emby in Package Center, Emby is an icon in the Syno desktop but does not show as a package, nor is https://synology.emby.media/ added as a package source. When I tried adding Emby as a package Source, it timed out. When I searched for this issue, most of the articles are 3-4 years old, is this repo now offline?

In order to upgrade, would my approach still be a manual install?
I would want to take a clean backup before moving forward
I have a Syno 216+ I could test this out on prior but that is not an identical setup, no vol2-SSD and different Linux kernel
I have read through the release notes, lots of changes over 18M, great work DEV team!
Any issues doing the jump from 4.6.7.0 =to=> 4.7.11.0
Emby runs on /vol2 2xSSDs in slots 3/4 of the Syno, the media is on /vol1 2xHDD

Things have been super stable with a few bugs I am hoping are fixed by now

Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hi, a new Synology install process was announced during 4.6 releases. Going forward you'll either install from Synology Package Center (DSM 7+), or download from our website:

https://emby.media/download

Please let us know if this helps. Thanks.

Thanks Luke, this link for DSM 6 https://emby.media/synology6-server.html describes the manual install process. Manual is the only option now for DSM 6, correct?

Correct, yes.

@LukeI just noticed that synology6 release was not created for 4.7.12.  Is Emby stuck @ 4.7.11 for DSM6 ... or am I just being impatient?

@LukeI'm kind of stuck on DSM6 for now so I guess I'll wait with bated breath.

Thx for the reference(s).
