Synology DS211J & Emby?

[omer50 0]

Dear friends,

 

I have a little question.

I had a DS211j laying around and I wanted to use this for IPTV with an M3U file (found on the internet to test out). 

So i tried to install emby and setup everything, got to the point i can see my channels, but man, what was it working slow.

When i click any channel, it will get to an infinite loading.

 

My question is, is my device not good enough or am i doing something wrong, or is it a bad drive or something? 

Specs are: 

 

1.2GHz

128mb Ram

 

the cpu and ram stays both under 100 most of the time. cpu sometimes hits 100, but average is 50-70 for both.

 

would love to hear from you.

thanks

Here is the log from emby.

It is working now on some channels, but it is veeeeeery slow with loading.

Even reaching the logs took a very long time.

what can be the cause? bad specs, bad hdd`s?

 

is there an alternative instead of synology, like VPS where i can run this at its cheapest and add some storage to the vps for torrents etc?

no not exactly, it takes ages for everything on emby to load, even the log page, what can be the cause of this? Bad specs?

Hello @@omer50

 

The DS211j has an ARMv5 processor that dates back to 2009, so it's certainly limited in terms of raw processing power.

 

For what you're trying to do, this h/w really isn't going to be up to the job I'm afraid to say.

 

Best
