On Android it rebuilds the database every time you open the app, even if you've subsequently switched to Legacy mode! I've raised a ticket about this.

I'm not sure what "smart" mode is, but if you're using Legacy mode then you don't need a WHA rescan. WiiM introduced caching a few months ago which could lead you to believe that you need a rescan, so if you're missing recently added albums and not using advanced mode then it's a bug with the...

The only reason you need to perform a scan in the WHA is because you're using "Advanced" mode? Have you looked at legacy (as your server intended) mode? The option to switch appears below "Rescan Your Music Server".

Just click on a track and playback will continue from there.

In Emby go to Settings > DLNA and enable: Enable DLNA Play To: Cast to UPnP renderers e.g. WiiM Ultra Enable DLNA Server: Browse library from third party control points e.g. WiiM Home app To browse your library from the WiiM Home app go to Browse > Home Music Share > Media Server > [Emby...

For local media the WiiM Home App relies on Android Media indexing, so there's nothing to get rid of from a WiiM perspective. You used to be able to exclude directories by placing a .nomedia file in the root, but I don't believe that's the case anymore.

I know during the development of the MusicBee DLNA plugin, the developer pushed some changes to the Media Interface plugin to enable gapless playback, so I'd be surprised if it couldn't handle a single stream.

Couldn't you instead just cast to the UPnP renderer created by the "UPnP/DLNA Media Interface" plugin?

Do you have a NAS? It'll be much easier to manage your collection on a NAS, and, depending on the model, you'll have access to more reliable music servers.

What did Plex say when you asked them to support UPnP playback?

I presume the tracks are now being served (to clients) by Music Assistant, so the delay is in fetching the initial track from Plex.

I've only looked at the queries related directly to my search term at present, but mine are all hard limited to 4 results so I'm surprised you're seeing 20; I wonder if it's because I'm using a free account (I'm not a Plex user). Notice the 'LIMIT 4' at the end, showing it's very much a Plex...

Creating the registry key EnableDatabaseTrace instructs Plex to log all database queries. Each search triggers 4 database queries which appear to relate to album, artist, track and ? The problem is, each can only return a maximum of 4 rows (using the LIMIT 4 sql clause). Does that match what...

It's an API call (GET /hubs/search?query=Beatles&contentDirectoryID=3 in my case) so if the results are erratic it's likely a Plex fault. The searches are visible in the 'Plex Media Server.log' once debugging has been enabled, though unfortunately you can't see the results.
