4K videos contain many kinds of format, like MKV, AVI, MP4,etc. Before you upload 4K YIFY movies to Synology DS216play, I suggest you to unify all YIFY 4K videos to 4K MP4 for MP4 is the most compatible format that nearly all multimedia players can accept it. If your player to watch 4K YIFY movies via Synology DS216play doesn’t support 4K, you even need to compress 4K to 1080p

Step 2: Choose output file format.

From "Format" bar drop-down list, choose the formats that you want to output for later use. For compatibility consideration, it is idea for you to choose "Common Video" > "H.264 HD Video (*.mp4)" as output file format.



Tip: If you don’t change output format, you can ignore the step 2. But I do suggest you compress 4K to 1080p for the wide usage of 4K YIFY movies. Open "Profile Settings" window, click "Size(pix)" to select 1920*1080 as the final resolution for output video.



Step 3: Convert 4K YIFY movies to Synology

Solved - Ripping DVDs to RN104 then stream to Amazon Fire TV 2

Q: “ I would like to copy my 300 or so DVDs to my RN104 then be able to watch them on my Amazon Fire TV, both are connected via 100Mbps Ethernet. I have a 104" screen and a Hi-Fi based 5 channel surround system so sound and video quality is most important, I am not fussed about file size as I have loads of storage on the RN104. I'm using a Cambridge Audio 551R as a pre-amplifier which can decode every current surround format so I'd like to keep the highest quality soundtrack available on the DVD, whether that be Dolby Digital or preferably DTS if it's there. I have been test MakeMKV and Handbreak but faild. Many thanks in advance for anyone out there who can help!” - Fromhttps://community.netgear.com/

Though playing DVDs on New Amazon Fire TV 2 from RN104 is still out of the question because of Amazon Fire TV 2 is lack of the DVD drive. As we know, Amazon Fire TV 2 usually supports video formats including H.263, H.264, MPEG4-SP, etc. And RN104 support MP4 files too.

But such kind of DVD rippers isn't suit for copy protected DVD movies, like Frozen, Guardians of the Galaxy, Transformers 4. In order to fast copy DVDs to RN104 then stream to Amazon Fire TV 2, we need to rip DVD to new Amazon Fire TV/RN104 compatible video formats Pavtube DVDAid, one top-quality DVD ripper, which can easily and quickly rip DVD to the new Amazon Fire TV/RN104 supported H.264 MP4, so that you can connect Amazon Fire TV 2 from RN104d with your TVs including Smart TV, HD TV, 3D TV, 4K TV, and more. 

After downloading and installing, you can rip and stream DVD to RN104/Amazon Fire TV 2 in several simple steps. (For Mac users, Pavtube DVDAid for Mac is the way to go. (Mac OS X El Capitan include).

Step 2. Choose output format for RN104/Fire TV 2

  • Fire TV Supported Video/Audio: H.263/H.264/MPEG4-SP/VC1 & AAC/AC-3/E-AC-3/HE-A/PCM/MP3. And read Plex Supported Video and Audio Format here.



Tip: From the specification of Amazon Fire TV 2, the video in H.264/AVC codec can be up to 1080p and 30 fps. So you can hit on “Settings” to open settings window where you can adjust the video size to 1080p and frame rate to 30 fps. Since AC3 is not sure playable or not, you can choose AAC and 5.1 channel for audio. If 5.1 sound is not supported, it will be limited to stereo audio.

After all settings, just press “Convert” icon below the preview window. Once the process ends, you can locate the generated file in output folder. Now, put the ripped DVD to RN104 and install a Plex on it. Then install a Plex on Amazon Fire TV 2, too. Try again to play DVD videos on Amazon Fire TV via Plex through RN104 NAS.
