Hey, thanks for the really useful info.  I just changed y Docker
Container on the Synology to be the latest version from
lmscommunity/logitechmediaserver (8.1.1), and the "Use unsupported
extensions" option is indeed there. Was able to add Dynamic Playlists,
and it's still working, which is great.

Today was a rainy afternoon spent preparing the Docker version as a
contingency for when I'm either (a) forced to upgrade Perl, or (b)
forced to upgrade Synology DSM to 7.0. I'll continue using the Package
Centre version with the older Perl for now, but it's great to know I
have a backup option - assuming the Docker Container version of LMS will
continue to function in DSM7.

Many thanks!



My setup:
    
- LMS 7.9.1-168 running on Synology D218+ connected to Wi-Fi router
  via LAN cable
- 1 x Squeezebox Touch, 2 x Squeezebox Radios, 1 x Squeezebox Receiver
- all connecting over Wi-Fi
- LMS library either ALAC Apple Lossless (scanned in on iTunes) or
  ACC/M4A 256kbps downloads from iTunes
