You didn't tell us what you're doing here but I infer from the MPD message that you must have enabled the UPnP Media Browser, created a UPnP Music Source for your Minimserver, and scanned it.
I"m not sure why you'd do this when your Synology NAS offers a decent Samba/SMB server function, but never mind me.
I never had any trouble with moOde as UPnP Renderer and Minimserver as UPnP Media Server.
So I tried to repro the configuration I think you have. Enabled the UPnP Media Browser, created a UPnP Music Source for just one slice through the UPnP thicket, and scanned it.
Here's a snippet of the Audio Info report while I'm playing a track from the Minimserver:
No problem.
I've never seen the error message you post.
My guess is that you started the scan too high in the Minimserver mount and MPD has built up a database with multiple paths describing the same tracks.
It's important to note that UPnP Media Servers create synthetic views of their content: depending on the server you may be presented with album, artist, genre, ..., views, each leading eventually to a desired track, but most not describing actual directory/subdirectory/track structure. You need to scan repeatedly while creating your Music Source until you've drilled down to a base level. I think this is a P-I-T-A and consequently never use the UPnP Media Browser but there's no easy solution to the problem presented by the servers.
Back to my first point: use the SAMBA service if possible.
