    Spotify Spotify Lossless is here, it's official!

    Reading all this "low-res is good enough for me" and "nobody should care about higher than CD quality", it is NO WINDER why Spotify took its own sweet time before finally supporting "high-res"...

    Roomfit control in smart presets

    Why would you want/need different RoomFit profiles based on selected Input? Or are you really complaining only about the desire for separate PEQ profiles for your selected Inputs?

    New Wiim Ultra - can't connect to music files on server

    That is exactly the issue. SMBv2 isn't fully backwards compatible. So since WiiM isn't retaining SMBv1 support for security reasons, the UnRaid Server would need to support its Music Sharing/Streaming Service with SMBv2/v3.

    WiiM Mini Firmware v4.6.728831 Update - Sep 9, 2025

    Smart Presets - did the Mini just get the jump on the Ultra and Amp Ultra for this Hot Feature?? And does it also include RoomFit Profile selection - either as part of EQ or implicitly as part of Output Selection?? (I don't have a Mini, but am eager to see what is upcoming for my Pro and Pro+...

    WiiM Home App on Windows and MAC

    I wouldn't put all the blame on WiiM regarding the limitations of their Windows/MacOS WiiMHome Apps. Most of the Music Streaming Services (and Video Streamers for that fact too) are highly restrictive regarding their APIs and the Features that 3rd-party's are allowed to present to the Public...

    New Wiim Ultra - can't connect to music files on server

    The discussion has moved past the questions of UnRaid SMB Connectivity, but... The issue experienced is likely one of UnRaid supporting only SMB2/SMB3 while most older Devices expecting connections be via the deprecated SMB1 protocol.

    Young pup!! Galadriel was over 7000 at that point ( and still looking FINE!), and Cirdan was showing some grey at over 11000 years!!

    WiiM Ultra Firmware v5.2.723250 Update - Jul 15, 2025

    The HDMI Standards Group isn't really as much a "Standards" group as a "Marketing" group whose main goal is the continued proliferation of "HDMI-capable" devices and the suppression of competing standards; AND the collection of Annual Licensing and Royalty Fees. A true Standards-oriented group...

    Streaming SQ Advice Connecting to AVR to Amp to Speaker Selector

    @StreamingDanes - Actually, given the range of dates for these posts, I hope you have done "all of the above" on your own, and come to a configuration which pleases you.

    Streaming SQ Advice Connecting to AVR to Amp to Speaker Selector

    Given your rather unique collection of equipment and connections, in truth only you can say which configuration will give you the best sound. That said: One of your most likely issues is the lesser DAC built-in to the Denon AVR-X2700H - and its even lesser ADC Chipset. When running the WiiM...

    Multichannel Downmix Support

    You may want to look more closely at the Codecs used for your various Multichannel Tracks. WiiM has stated that they handle Dolby Digital (and at one point emphasized DD not DD+). ATMOS is a totally different deal, as it is not strictly an Audio Bitstream but rather Audio Objects which the...

    WiiM Pro Plus Firmware v4.8.724036 Update - Jul 23, 2025

    I, for one, appreciate that they backflow the Updates recently released to the "cutting edge" Ultra to the "lesser" Pro and Plus models.

    Audirvana/Mac Mini/WiiM Ultra help! (noob)

    Go into the WiiM Home App, and the Mac Mini should be there as an UPnP/DLNA Source. But then, you will be using the WiiM App to select Media or Playlists...
