If you can have python running on your 7000, installing Plex should be possible.
Download the synology ARM package, and use, for example, winrar to extract the directory containing the necessary files to somewhere on your router. "cd" to said directory and start the server.
It's what I do to run it on my Pogoplug, and that's a box about as powerful as the 7000. _________________ "You think you´re real smart. But you´re not smart; you´re dumb. Very dumb. But you´ve met your match in me. "

What? I have a pogoplug docstar sitting around not doing anything. can you point me a tutorial or the sort to start this?
I don't remember where I got started, but it's as easy as I mentioned.
I should mention, I have Debian running on my Pogo.
So, basically you:
Go to https://plex.tv/downloads
Get the Synology ARM version.
Open it with Winrar - yes, even though the "spk" extension is not recognized by the app, it will open it OK.
Extract the "package.tgz" from the "spk" and then untar it to somewhere on your pogo.
"cd" to the newly created directory and do a "./start.sh"
Streams perfectly to up to three devices at a time. Maybe more, but I had no way of testing, nor do I need more. _________________ "You think you´re real smart. But you´re not smart; you´re dumb. Very dumb. But you´ve met your match in me. "

I know this is an old topic, but I want to revisit this.
The link in post #2 no longer works. Is this still the case? I have a NAS (WD My Cloud) that is connected 9RJ45) to my R7000, and the PLEX server running on a Win10 machine that is connected to the router via (1GB RJ45).
It's been running pretty well, but could be a little quicker. I can get about 2 streams with little buffering.
This an thread of interest. I am running a plex server on a win 10 machine as well. It is an I7 with 16gig of ram. It serves myself and family abroad. I also use this computer as a media player to the living room. I am using the Plex Media Theater which is in beta and only only available to subscribers.
It would be cool to run it on my buffalo 1750. Though I doubt it is fast enough to do what my i7 is doing, but cool none the less.
So please update this thread with what you find out. _________________ Please Fix The Following Bugs:
