Has anyone tried the UK one?

That's mostly for people in/from the UK. You need to have a UK "TV license", and if you were using it from the US you'd need to have a residential Tailscale Exit Node or similar in the UK. Some commercial VPNs might work, but most are blocked to prevent geo-relocation.

Have you tried using the /volume1/docker shared folder directory that Synology creates when you install the Docker package?
I find that's easier.
/volume1/docker/filebot_config:/config:rw
and you don't need to specify the :rw (Read/Write), since that is the default.
I discovered this when I first started using docker for Channels DVR and it wouldn't work using other shared folders. Channels DVR on docker - #38 by chDVRuser
That's interesting. At some point Synology changed the name from Docker to Container Manager which I think I installed from Package Center. Container Manager is built by Docker Inc. Anyway it never created a /docker directory.
/volume1/docker

Installing Portainer:
Here's my recommended command line to install Portainer, which works for Linux and Docker Desktop based installations:
docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -p 9000:9000 -p 9443:9443 --name portainer \
--restart=always \
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
-v portainer_data:/data \
cr.portainer.io/portainer/portainer-ce:latest
After the recent WB kerfuffle, I switched to these docker compose files to continue receiving Samsung, Plex, and Pluto.
Things are working well, however I am only getting six hours of guide data at any given time. This is vs using nocordz for Pluto, which gives 24 hours.
Is this "just the way it is", or can I change a config to increase the amount of guide data retrieved/stored?
Thanks!

I get 6hrs from the Samsung TV Plus for Channels docker and 24hrs with the Pluto for Channels (jonmaddox) docker. Don't use a Plex docker, so not sure about that.
Using the jgomez177 dockers as installed through Olivetin Project One Click, my program guide for Plex goes out to around 72 hours (3 days). Pluto looks to be around 24 hours. Samsung is the shortest at roughly 6 hours.

Thanks for the responses, @chDVRuser and @jsfullam .
I was planning on using the weekend to spin up a new Linux install to try Project One Click. I'll do that and see if I get improved results.

Just be aware that the Samsung TV Plus for Channels docker changed and requires the Channels DVR Custom M3U Channel settings to be updated.

Both the Docker Compose in this post, and Project One-Click have been updated to incorporate the latest changes to the Samsung-TVPlus-for-Channels container.

Will running watchtower update the Samsung TV Plus docker? Or, shall I kill the docker, remove the source, and start from scratch?
Watchtower would update the container, but you'd be lacking values for TZ and REGIONS. I'd suggest stopping the stack and pasting in the new compose, along with the new env vars. Then click "Update the stack", followed by using the "Re-pull and redeploy" slider.

Gotcha. I figured that would be the case. However, I thought that it's better to ask for guidance than to screw things up all by myself. 
Thanks once again!

Big THANK YOU to you, @bnhf !
Long story short, I had to reinstall Docker Desktop on my computer and start over from scratch.
These docker-compose saved me so much time, it was so easy to get all my Docker sources back very quickly!

I'm just now jumping on the docker train (Ubuntu) so I'm sorry for the basic questions, and for posting them here, I'm not sure where else to ask. I started messing with docker yesterday and here's what I've done, and what I'm not sure about.
So far I've installed docker, portainer with a docker run command, Samsung, and Pluto with docker run commands. This works, but the containers won't update themselves like this. This is why I would want to setup a portainer stack with docker compose and use watchtower?
Im still kind of confused with the process with docker compose. The order of operations would be:
Have docker installed and running
Have no active containers running
Install portainer with the above command
Create a portainer stack with the recommended compose for olivetin in the advanced section
Launch olivetin to get the recommended compose for the containers I would like to use
Amend the stacks' docker compose to include more containers (Samsung, Pluto, Plex, stirr, PLM, olivetin, watchtower, maybe more?)
Redeploy the stack
Does this sound about right?
Yes. Projects deployed using Portainer-Stacks are easier to modify and update (using Watchtower or manually).
OliveTin has a whole second page dedicated to Project One-Click, which will create a stack for you in Portainer, and Custom Channel Source for you in CDVR (where applicable).
