Also controlling Plex from WHA results in a situation where Plex does not show the media as playing. As a result Plex also does not scrobble the played songs to Last.FM.

The biggest problem I have with Chromecast is that I cannot use it when I want to cast from Plex on my Windows PC. And I use my PC to control the entire house, including selecting which music is playing where. Also Chromecast does not support gaples playback which is annoying when playing live...

In my setup the WiiM's appear as "on other network" as well when I am using Spotify. But they also show up on the local network but as Chromecast endpoints. My network has one subnet and one DHCP server. It doesn't bother me, but I have no idea why it works that way.

LMS did not become open source, it was open source from the beginning when it was distributed along with the very first SLIMP3 by Slim Devices, which was later acquired by Logitech.

That is because the MAC address shown in the info screen is the Wifi MAC address not the one for the ethernetport.

Unfortunately not. That makes it useless in my opinion.

It's not Plex that is causing the problem, it is either the router or the WiiM (or both).

Yes, that means now your NAS and WiiM are in the same subnet when 255.255.255.0 is applied as a subnet mask. I have seen this happening a lot, also with routers supplied by ISP's.

A lot of consumer network devices cannot correctly handle a network mask other than 255.255.255.0, even though you can often supply a different mask as you did. I assume this is the problem with the WiiM as well.

I do the same thing, except my second WiiM is in my study and the other one in the living room. They are linked together permanently (easily configurable in the WiiM app) so they are always playing the same thing. Except, the amps they are connected to are not always on, so I can choose to have...

Yesterday I tried the Plex integration with the WiiM amp. On my iPad it works ok, I can search my Plex music collection and show an alphabetical list of artists, albums, etc. Music plays ok, but there is one big problem, the Plex server is not showing (in the management console) that it is...

It's been awhile since I set up the WiiM's but as I recall the phone connects to the WiFi of the WiiM for initial configuration, so the phone disconnects from the WiFi network. Then after some initial configuration the WiiM either connects to the network over Ethernet, or needs a WiFi network to...

Exactly, it needs to be on the same IP subnet, not the same WiFi SSID. I have my WiiM's all on Ethernet. Probably, if the app works in such a way that it copies the active WiFi from the phone. Since I have never set up the WiFi on the WiiM's I have no idea how it works.

Yes the cat makes the sound purfect.
