Try to delete the Custom Scan data, you can do this with the "Clear"
links in the Custom Scan settings page in the "Manage Scanning" sub
section. Please notice that the delete operation is likely going to take
long time and the server will hang completely while it's executed. Also
notice that you need to perform a rescan with Custom Scan afterwards to
get back the Custom Scan data.
The general problem is likely that the Synology NAS you are using isn't
fast enough so I can't promise you won't get the same problem after the
rescan.

It's performance related, the Mixed Tags Menus requires better
performance of the server running LMS than the Custom Tags Albums menu.

Depends on the Squeezebox, it's possible through title formats if you
have a Squeezebox Classic/Boom/Transporter but it's not possible on
Squeezebox Touch/Radio/Duet. However, on Squeezebox Touch/Radio/Duet
it's possible to use my Custom Clock applet to design your own Now
Playing screen and by using this you can also use title formats in it.
Just note that you should probably not invest too much in using custom
tags if you plan to continue using the Synology NAS for LMS because for
each tag you add to the Custom Scan configuration Custom Browse menus is
likely going to get slower. Make sure to get a 30-day evaluation license
to Custom Clock and try it out in your environment before you make a
real purchase if you are interested in using Custom Clock.

Hmm, I should probably make the "Override standard track details"
setting in Custom Browse also apply to the browse menus. Have to
investigate if this is possible.
If I change that you would get the standard song info in all places,
would that work or do you want Custom Browse behaviour in all places ?

This is a limitation of the Logitech code, the now playing section can't
be customised much unfortunately.
