I created a file in my playlist directory directly in the shell as empty?.m3u8, and populated it with a playlist I knew would throw an error, to see what the log showed for the file name encoding.

It comes back as:
Error: playlist _playlists/empty.m3u8: no matching file for ../Carta/Rehearsal Recordings/01 Track 01?.mp3

Another detail is that my file system on the Synology is BTRFS if that might make a difference.

BTFRS is not the problem; but character encoding is.

Synology is based on Unix. Mac and Unix don't have the same system to encode non ascii characters. I had this problem once: é was one character on the Mac and became two characters on the synology though displayed as one on the mac.

Unicode on Mac is NFD while on Linux it is NFC

I solved it by avoiding SMB and using a software like transmit via SFTP
