Another Plex user here. They display in both, but much better when I select Plex within the Wiim app than natively in Wiim. Synology NAS/DSM 7.2 OS. Same setup as you, all individual files tagged with large album art (1400x1400 pixel or larger), and same image saved in the folder.

You can get a Roku Express for pretty cheap too. And unlike Apple or Amazon, they don't have the same financial incentive to put up barriers to their users getting their video and music content from someone else. That's why as a totally unbiased Roku user, I think they should stop all other...

Personally, I generate more power via solar than I use, so electricity cost is negligible. And the time I want it most is when I'm entertaining, where having a group of people huddling around a tiny screen is antithetical to the environment I'd want. But that's kind of beside the point. I...

So this is a side tangent, and if that's inappropriate for this forum don't hesitate to let me know. But I'm currently rewiring a house I just bought....same service/meter/breaker panel but everything beyond them new. I understand the basic theory of ground loops, but that's as far as it goes...

Any word on Roku?

Good to note. I don't think it would be an issue where I'm thinking of placing it. Nobody puts Vibelink in a corner.

Couldn't agree more. Because of software updates that extend it's functionality, the same mini I bought a ~two-and-a-half ago is a lot better product then it was when I first bought it. Not a lot of audio kit you can say that about.

The same way I could go on a first date with two different woman and find that I didn't have a preference, but after spending a lot of time with both I clearly favor one over the other. Something that goes barely or completely unnoticed on that first date, in an environment very different from...

I think you could make a case that testing audio equipment that way is more like living in a room where the entire room was painted one color, then repainting that room entirely with another color. I'm not dismissing straight A/B tests. But they're likely just that, tests, and not how I...

Yeah, without having listened, no idea if that is a significant upgrade or something my flawed ears wouldn't be able to detect. Thinking I may grab one to pair with a mini in a satellite room, and once it's in the house I can do my own test without worrying about paying for a redundant DAC if I...

That's kind of my thinking, pair it with a mini connected via S/PDIF. Obvious fit aesthetically with the Ultra, but that set up means you're paying for an extra DAC and volume control that wouldn't likely be used.

Hopefully Roku is next!
