Thanks for the info - much appreciated.  Erland replied to the same
question on a separate thread and the good news (at least in the short
term) is that from LMS version 8.1, there's  “Use unsupported
extensions” option in LMS Settings which enables Dynamic Playlists and
other plugins to be brought back from the dead - at least for now.  You
can see his response 'here in this thread'

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
