ASUSTOR Portal

You can easily install ASUSTOR Portal through ADM's App Central.


The ASUSTOR Portal app allows you to fully exploit the NAS' multimedia capabilities since it offers access to the famous XBMC application. It also allows you to browse the Internet through its built-in Google Chrome browser or log into ADM to manage the NAS, watch YouTube clips, or monitor live feeds through the Surveillance Center app. All of the above can directly be done on your TV and without a client PC.


This is ASUSTOR Portal's main screen, and it is 4K content compatible with all NAS models of the Asustor 7 series. You have three options to remotely control ASUSTOR Portal:

• The ASUSTOR remote
• The AiRemote app through mobile devices
• USB keyboard and mouse

Plex

Plex Media Server allows you to stream media to numerous devices. These include smartphones, tables, notebooks, etc.

Remote Center

Remote Center can be installed through App Central. You have to install it in order to be able to control the NAS with Asustor's remote control or the AiRemote app, using iOS or Android devices.


The remote control Asustor provides as an optional accessory makes using XBMC a breeze, and we liked its small dimensions a lot. It only has the buttons you really need, which won't have you run into any problem as you play your favorite multimedia content off the NAS.

X.Org

Xorg is an essential application you need to run apps like XBMC and iTunes Server.

XBMC/Kodi

XBMC, now Kodi, is probably the best media player application. It can be used to play all popular audio and video formats, and it also allows for network playback should you want to stream multimedia on the NAS to a TV or monitor through the bundled HDMI port. We advise you to use a multimedia keyboard to control Kodi, but you can also use any device that is compatible with Asustor's AiRemote app.


Here are a few screenshots of the XBMC/Kodi app running on the AS7004T. Every media file we tried was reproduced flawlessly. We should also note here that the latest Kodi version can handle 4K resolution, which users with such monitors or TVs that support UHD resolution will appreciate.
