Many users are disappointed because they rely on Video Station\u2019s versatile features to manage and play their media. Fortunately, there is a way to bring Video Station back to DSM 7.2.2 with a special script provided on GitHub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" src=\"https:\/\/netguide.io\/linux\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/videostation_1637548235_1-1024x614-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/netguide.io\/linux\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/videostation_1637548235_1-1024x614-1.png 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/videostation_1637548235_1-300x180.png 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/videostation_1637548235_1-768x461.png 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/videostation_1637548235_1-360x216.png 360w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/videostation_1637548235_1.png 1300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.synology.com\/de-de\/dsm\/packages\/VideoStation\">Synology<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the Video Station Script?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The script from GitHub user <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/007revad\/Video_Station_for_DSM_722\">007revad<\/a> is a simple solution to reinstall Video Station on DSM 7.2.2.

This means that it will not receive any further function and security updates. Of course, you can still use the Video Station within your home network, but you should not make it publicly accessible. It is best to use one of the three maintained alternatives: Plex, Emby or Jellyfin.<\/p>\n<script type=\"text\/plain\" data-tcf=\"waiting-for-consent\" data-id=\"4799\" data-bid=\"2\" data-placement=\"4800\">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<\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Synology removed Video Station in DSM 7.2.2.
