FYI, I got these partly from https://www.wiimhome.com/pdf/HTTP API for WiiM Products.pdf, and partly from setting up a mitmproxy instance as a proxy on my smartphone, then playing with the app to capture the requests (since the Wiim devices use self-signed certificates, it's not mandatory to...

But I actually managed to work around it, "emulating" the alarm using a script that I launch from my Raspberry Pi NAS. First, use the Wiim Home app to set the album or playlist you want to use as an alarm clock. Then, this script can be used to trigger the "alarm" (of course, no alarm is defined...

Same thing with the light part : you can't customize it when setting up an alarm, it's sunrise or nothing. And when playing with the color picker, you can tell it's "fake" : everything except the outer circle renders as whashed-out white. For instance, good luck trying to reproduce the...

Same here, I asked support about using Spotify as an alarm, they told me it is not supported, although it's explicitly written on the product page! It seems only amazon and alexa are actually supported. Even radios, you only have access to a limited selection of popular or local stations, and...

Well, maybe it was just a bad connection, or my cable dying… One thing worth noting: even when there is crackling audio or no sound, the Amp still wakes up and goes to standby through HDMI CEC. I moved the elements closer and tried with a 2 meter cable, and it did not have the issue. Then I...

Hello, I recently bought this cable to connect my WiiM Amp to my Panasonic TV: https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/21-hdmi-hdmi-cable/hdmi-21-optical-cable-8k-60hz-48gbps-uhd-hdr-10-dhcp-22-edid-cec-earc-3d-5m-p-17974.html Unfortunately, it does not work: the Amp is not turned on by CEC, and the TV...

2 additional pieces of info: - it seems to only happen after a hard reset (AC plug pulled for 5 to 10 seconds) OR a firmware update - with this week's firmware update (5.0.614850), I had absolutely no sound over HDMI instead of the "usual" crackling audio, and I had to do a hard reset to recover...

unfortunately, I don't have another long enough cable, or a closer arc capable device to try but I think the issue starter to appear well over a month after I started using the device, and I haven't touched the cable also, I didn't have the issue on the humming PCB rev 2 that I had before, in...

Hi, I have a strange issue when waking up the device to play audio from the HDMI ARC source, and I'm wondering if anyone has experienced the same. It can be heard on https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Al72izVL_pHlQwE-YJ16T5PSGW3kwL1Y/view, there's some kind of crackling noise over the TV audio...

Yes, I'm running it. But I don't think I've ever seen a Wiim Amp firmware upgrade that also upgrades u-boot

As I said, the markings on the bottom of the unit are not the same as on my previous v4 unit. so it's definitely newer hardware

FYI, I finally got a replacement unit from french retailer sonvideo/easylounge, one month after returning my humming v4: - it's PCB_version 5 :) - and the markings on the bottom confirm it's a version 5 (it has the class 2 logo) :) - but the box is an older one (it has color service logos) 🤨 -...

Is the TV the source of the signal, or is the source another device connected to the TV? If the TV is the source (as in digital or analog TV tuner), maybe you can disconnect the Amp from HDMI ARC port, increase the volume on the TV, and then reconnect the Amp, and see if there's an increase in...

If the apple TV remote has volume control, and the apple TV handles HDMI CEC, HDMI CEC and ARC are enabled on your TV, it should all be controllable with only the apple TV remote - turning on the apple TV should turn on the TV, set it on the correct hdmi input, turn on the wiim amp and set it...

It can do white, and the other colors don't look like "simple" LEDs, so I think it's an RGB LED, and if I were a bit less lazy, I'd open a feature request to make it configurable ;p
