    WiiM Ultra reported as "offline" in Google Home

    Yes, many aspects of the WiiM could still be controlled with their own app, of course. You seem to suggest though that the Google Home environment is the root cause of the issue I was experiencing. All my other Google enabled devices (Google, Lenovo and JBL speakers, Sony TV) have continued to...

    Have we reached Peak WiiM?

    Even though it has been on the roadmap for months now, many of us are left guessing if the native Plex endpoint support is actually still happening or not.

    WiiM Ultra reported as "offline" in Google Home

    Me, my partner and many other Google Home users probably do? 🤔 If it weren't for the Chromecast & Google Home support, I might have looked at other brands.

    WiiM Ultra reported as "offline" in Google Home

    Alright, one complete factory reset later, the issues seem to be solved: - I was able to add the Ultra back to my living room - the Ultra shows up as "Online" in the Google Home overview - setting the Ultra as the default music playback device for my other Google Home smart speakers now works as...

    WiiM Ultra reported as "offline" in Google Home

    No Linkplay or WiiM devices in that list unfortunately. My dishwasher is present though 😂 In the meantime I had disabled/enabled the Ultra's Chromecast functionality in the WiiM Home App + removed it in my Google Home app. It now shows up as a new Local device in Google Home, but I'm getting...

    Reduced latency on analog inputs

    You might want to mention which WiiM device you're using? It was reported before that the WiiM Amp/Amp Pro have issues with latency. The obvious solution would be to go with a separate streamer (WiiM Pro Plus or WiiM Ultra) + separate amplifier (Vibelink). Connect the WiiM over digital...

    WiiM Ultra reported as "offline" in Google Home

    My WiiM Ultra is always shown as being offline in my Google Home app's device overview. However, I can perfectly open it and adjust its volume - making the Ultra (and my amp) go active if it was still in standby. Even when the Ultra is turned on and playing, it will still show as offline in the...

    Plex Integration (In-App and as Plexamp Player)

    It sure must've been a lot easier as most of the code was probably there already in the WiiM Home App. It has never been on the roadmap even.

    Plex Integration (In-App and as Plexamp Player)

    In the meantime we got a webradio widget on the Ultra literally nobody was asking for and doesn't even show any stations in my country 🥲

    "re-clocking" the Ultra digital out ?

    Yes the subtle improvements as described are simply not possible to obtain as we're talking 0's and 1's. It's a different story in the analog domain.

    "re-clocking" the Ultra digital out ?

    His video has been addressed on these forums many times and the general consensus seems to be that the Ultra doesn't need any re-clocking. I tend to agree with these opinions as well. I find it hard to believe how adding an additional box and an additional conversion step could result in a more...

    Humour and/or humor

    So I guess homophobic jokes are allowed then? Simply not funny and time for moderators to step in @QuarryHunslet @RyanWithWiiM

    Humour and/or humor

    Guys c'mon, there's plenty of other places on the internet for this. Sad to see a few individuals tarnishing the reputation of a brand that's trying to democratise the audio industry + the mostly wonderful community behind it.

    Sure it's not a problem with the WiiM Home app? Try installing an older version. With Android you can download an older APK through a quick Google search.
