Yes, Synology is phasing out media support on their NAS. Especially PLEX.
DS1621+ should be able to stream any videos in your home local network. Remote streaming over the internet is where issue starts.
DS920+ could transcode up to 1080p in Plex. But 4K connect on the fly conversion would require Xeon based model.
This is why Qnap 73A with GPU card is so popular. ANd now Qnap 74 series seem to handle even 8k .
I hope this helps.
