QNAP Systems has released the Turbo NAS QTS 4.1.2 operating system, introducing NAS Installation over HDMI – a pioneering function in the NAS market that allows installing a NAS without a network connection, and adds several new features including VPN Server support, VPN Client support, block-based LUN backup, subtitle (*.SRT) support for Video Station and File Station, embedding subtitles into transcoded videos, Chromecast streaming, and more.
"We have made many enhancements to the business and home features in QTS 4.1.2 to provide a better user experience and to make the Turbo NAS a great companion in the workplace and for home entertainment," said Willy Kuo, Product Manager, QNAP.
Â
QNAP is the first NAS provider to provide NAS installation over HDMI. Users can now enjoy extreme convenience by setting up their Turbo NAS locally without a network connection.
VPN options have also been added, with the Turbo NAS now being able to act as a VPN Server or to support a VPN Client for PPTP and OpenVPN protocols.
Â
New features for home entertainment include supporting subtitles (.SRT files) in Video Station and File Station, and transcoding videos with embedded subtitles. The QAirplay & Chromecast app, available in the App Center, can stream media content directly on TV via AirPlay-enabled or Chromecast devices, providing users with flexible options for their multimedia experience.
Users can also install Qfile and Qvideo on their mobile devices to flexibly stream media stored on their Turbo NAS via Apple TV or Chromecast.
Â
QNAP has also released Qfinder 5.0 for Windows, adding a smart installation guide to improve the initial start-up process and to allow Windows users to directly create storage pools and multiple volumes with Qfinder.QNAP introduces NAS Installation over HDMI
