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.

Jellyfin does merge across folders (tested with CDxx and Disc x). What's slightly odd is that the album artwork needs to be stored in the shared parent. There are better options though.

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.
