A NAS could be a special case, do you have faad installed ? or other
transcoding helpers like flac,lame, alac etc .
You have to ask someone who knows the Synology, I don't.
Obviously some parts are missing compared to a PC install.

Sometimes an executable does not exist for certain hardware platforms
mostly NAS cpu's , sometimes you can build or download a special
variant.
Or in some cases the NAS simply do not have the CPU power or memory to
run the transcoding.

You better ask in third party hardware forum where the NAS users hangs
around.
