Just opening the page is enough of a test So it seems to be a UPnP discovery issue. Is your Ultra on WiFi, and if so is it being served by the same access point as another UPnP renderer that has been listed in foobar? It might be worth checking discovery with Jriver's UPnP renderer analyser...

Have you checked basic connectivity? http://<ip-of-wiim>:49152/description.xml

Symfonium > Cast icon > WiiM > Settings > enable 'UPnP: Stop Casting on external changes'.

If I cast a track from Symfonium then switch input to Line from the WHA, playback stops and Symfonium switches to its local renderer. I never switch inputs, but I think that's how it was supposed to work.

Symfonium supports many "providers" including local. As long as the app has access to the filesystem and network (I've never used a Chromebook) then it will index your content and allow you to cast it to any UPnP or Chromecast device.

I can add an album to the queue but not a playlist. Maybe it's only available on iOS? EDIT: Individual albums can be added in "Advanced" mode or via My Music > Local, but there isn't the ability to select multiple albums as requested.

As hard as it is to believe, that is the current state of playlist management in the WiiM Home App! Use Symfonium instead.

Where do they state that? You could use SMB, but only folder browsing is supported.

It clearly shows that it's an authenticated protocol for use within the apple ecosystem; it's not DLNA.

https://support.apple.com/en-us/108958 As others have said, MinimServer is the answer.

If you group all your devices in the WHA and play to the group through Lyrion using the UPnP Bridge, all devices should stay in sync.

You wouldn't experience the problem with MinimServer as it correctly updates the GetSystemUpdateID state after rescans/restarts, so there should never be a stale cache.

The Android WiiM Home app developed a new caching "feature" recently (soon to be fixed hopefully). To rule out this problem/feature, try playing an album that you haven't played, or even browsed to before.

The lack of Opus support appears limited to the playback of local content through third party control points to the UPnP interface, though even that depends on external factors, such as the media server and control point in use.

The queue is held in Symfonium but the audio is pulled directly from Navidrome (CurrentURI from GetMediaInfo shows the source IP). Given the queue is held in Symfonium it does need to remain active in the background, to provide WiiM with the URL of the next track, but that shouldn't drain the...
