Hi, Roberto.
[First, if you start hand-editing system files then we have no way of knowing what state your player is in.]
The symptom you describe suggests your LAN doesn't have a local DNS resolver on it.
Using the built-in SSH Terminal or SSH'ing from another computer, see how the Synology NAS can be "found".
Here, for example, is the output when I search for my virtual Synology NAS with hostname DS3615xs
The raw hostname doesn't work because there's no local DNS resolver on my LAN; only the ISP-provided DNS and mDNS.
If I use moOde's SCAN function, it returns all the shares on the Synology NAS including "DS3615xs/Music". Unfortunately, moOde finds advertised shares via mDNS but doesn't return them with a fully qualified mDNS name. [I keep meaning to make this an issue on the moOde github repo.]
This means, in my case, that I have to enter the Music source path manually with either "DS3615xs/Music" "DS3615xs.local/Music"or "10.0.0.56/Music". This setting works fine and persists over reboots.
An alternative with current moOde would be to edit /etc/hosts to add "DS3615xs 10.0.0.56" but this is a hack unsuited for an appliance player.

Kent
