Ok, so, after checking a bit online, I realised that Picoreplayer on a
Raspberry Pi might be an easier option than trying to create a
containerized version of LMS on my NAS.

And I just happened to have a Raspberry 3B lying around as it was, so
gave it a shot and it was a breeze.

As I didn't have a large USB drive lying around, for the moment I am
just accessing the music files on my NAS via the LMS on my Raspberry,
which it finds under My Music, Remote Music Library  - no additional
configuration was required for this, maybe because LMS is still on the
NAS as well (just telling for noobs like myself who might find this
later on).

I used this YouTube video for basic instructions on the installation of
LMS/Picoreplayer on the Raspberry:

(again, for any noobs, and I'm sure there are countless alternatives,
but I found this one quite good).

I'm only using the Raspberry as a server now, with the player function
turned off, but I can use it as a player any time I want, because I can
simply access it with the Controller from the Duet.

So I'm really happy that I've got everything up and running, including
Tidal.

Really happy that this worked because I still like my Squeezeboxes and
just not really in the mood to purchase a new multiroom system.

And a big thank you for MHerger for pointing me in the right direction.
