I’m pretty sure that the only reason the Connect type features are not the default/only integration with services is because Sonos didn’t have any of that for years and some people got used to going through the hardware app to find music. That was done that way primarily because those services...
I wish they would clean up their language there. I could read that response as either of “plex library access within the WiiM app” or “making the Wiim be a Plexamp endpoint” being what they are actively working on. I’m pretty sure that I know the answer, but careful wording can go a long way to...
I don't know about anyone else, but this is what I really want.
I like using the native apps to control playback anyway. The Wiim app is cute for being able to queue up music from some of the services, but other than being able to quickly start a playlist from one of the remote buttons I don't...
Yes yes yes!
But we should also be able to limit the input sources to only those we use as well. I’ve had issues with the auto-switching with HDMI so have that turned off and it would be much more user friendly to just have useful inputs selectable. As OP originally requested, the same goes for...
A stand-alone Wiim speaker is at the top of my list. All the network inputs of the other Wiim products, with no need to cove connect anything else to get sound.
Okay, good to see that I’m not the ONLY one. Though you and I are interested in different form factors. I’m really after something like the Sonos One. Yes, mono speakers don’t sound as good, but I’ve already got Wiim streamers anywhere that sound quality is the top requirement.
That aside...
I'm hoping to see a Wiim "smart" speaker sometime soon. Really, just a standalone speaker with Wiim smarts inside would do it for most of my needs. In other words, put a Wiim Pro inside of a powered speaker. It would be nice if two of them could be setup in a stereo pair. Some locations around...
Chromecast doesn’t support gapless playback, so albums that flow don’t work and crossfades don’t work (Plexamp "sweet fades” are really pretty good). It’s also not possible to setup the WiiM remote to launch a Plex playlist. There are similar, though more bearable for me, issues with using Airplay.
I have added Tidal playlists by navigating to the playlist in the Wiim Home app. Within the playlist, there is a 3-dot menu on the left hand side. Under that menu, one of the options is "add to preset“. I haven’t come across another way to do it.
Plex/Plexamp support for me.
Wildcard, sort of related: Support for iOS Shortcuts, so that I can use the remote to trigger my white noise app (that would be silly/impossible for you to support natively).
