DS video

Description: DS video is the ideal channel to watch films and videos stored on your Synology NAS server: it organizes your collection by types of videos (Movies, TV shows...) and movie information is downloaded automatically.

You must own a Synology NAS to use this channel. DS video for Roku allows you to stream the video collection on your Synology NAS to your TV at home. DS video sorts your videos by categories (Movies, TV shows, Home videos.) to make browsing your library all the more convenient, and displays the movie information retrieved online automatically.
