DSM Video

Your NAS is packed with movies and TV shows. DSM Video is the app built to watch them — a fast, native experience on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. Synology dropped Video Station support on current DSM firmware. If you've kept your NAS up to date, you lost your video app. DSM Video fills that gap. It connects to DSVideoServer, a free lightweight package you install on your Synology, and gives you a fully native media player that feels like it belongs on your Apple devices. --- WHAT YOU GET Stream your personal library directly from your NAS — no third-party cloud, no subscription, no compression. Your files, your hardware, your control. - Native HLS Streaming — smooth playback on any network. Adaptive quality keeps video playing even on slower connections. - Apple TV App — a full tvOS experience built for the living room. Focus-engine navigation, cinematic poster art, and a parallax icon that looks great on your home screen. - iPad Sidebar — browse your entire library in a persistent sidebar while you watch. - Gesture Controls — swipe anywhere to scrub (a full swipe = 30 minutes). Swipe up or down to control volume. Pinch or double-tap to toggle fill and fit. - QuickConnect Support — access your NAS from anywhere using your Synology QuickConnect ID. No static IP, no port forwarding required. - Resume Anywhere — watch progress syncs across your devices. Stop on iPhone, pick up on Apple TV. - AirPlay — beam anything to any AirPlay-enabled display. --- COMPLETELY FREE. NO STRINGS. No subscription. No in-app purchases. No ads. You paid for your Synology — the app to use it should be free. DSM Video and DSVideoServer are both open-source on GitHub. --- WHAT YOU NEED - A Synology NAS running DSM 7.2 or later with an Intel or AMD (x86_64) processor - DSVideoServer installed from GitHub (free, open-source) - Your DSM username and password Setup takes about five minutes. Open Settings → How To for step-by-step instructions. --- DSM Video is an independent app and is not affiliated with Synology Inc.
