I wish to thank you Digimaster for the excellent work. I have installed
QLogitechMediaServer some time ago and all has been running smoothly for
a while.
Much easier than the previous SSOTS or the installation via a Container,
and much faster than both of them. My needed plugins (Spotty,
Shairtunes, YouTube) also seem to work fine.
Thanks!

The only weak point comes directly from LMS itself: there is no quick
way to start/stop/restart it, as it was done easily with SSOTS or
Docker.
Thus I would like to give my minimal contribution to the community with
this suggestion. Assuming you are using Windows, and that WinSCP is
installed, then PuTTY should also be automatically installed, as well as
its subprogram plink. Create a file called for example RestartLMS.bat on
your desktop (create a text file with Notepad and then rename it). The
content of your .bat file should be for example something like:

Code:
--------------------
    plink administrator@QNAPserver -pw adminpassword 
/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/LogitechMediaServer/QLogitechMediaServer.sh restart
--------------------

The path should be adapted to your specific QLMS installation, to be
verified via WinSCP. This command allows to restart QLMS with a
double-click on Windows, without logging in with PuTTY, or logging into
the QNAP GUI and finding the running QLMS application.
If you don't want to keep your password stored in clear on your
computer, you can omit the -pw adminpassword and then you will be
prompted for it in a command window.
You may create two other files for starting and stopping: the only
change will be the last parameter in the command line: start or stop,
instead of restart

PS: please tell me how I can make you a donation in support of the
excellent work
