Script to install Video Station in DSM 7.2.2
Synology's Video Station package has been installed more than 66 million times so there are a lot people very annoyed that Synology decided to abandon Video Station when DSM 7.2.2 was released. Many of those people are saying they will never buy another Synology NAS. So I decided to make it possible to install Video Station in DSM 7.2.2 for people who really want Video Station.
This script installs Video Station 3.1.0-3153 and Codec Pack 3.1.0-3005
Now also installs Media Server 2.1.0-3304 which supports video and audio conversion.
