I recently purchased a WiiM Mini for adding AirPlay capability to my existing system. My initial delight quickly evaporated as I started noticing frequent AirPlay glitches, dropouts, stuttering, whatever you want to call it.
I followed the WiiM AirPlay troubleshooting guide but nothing there made any difference. I have a very mainstream WiFi 6 access point with a strong signal and the problem occurs regardless of distance between devices.
Crucially, AirPlay between Apple devices works flawlessly on my network, so the finger points squarely at the WiiM Mini as the cause of the problem.
I am wondering whether folks here are (or are not) having the same problem. I am also wondering whether this is something that used to work fine but has been broken by a recent update. It seems not to be possible to go back to older firmware to check that.
I submitted a ticket to WiiM and received a generic response saying my information has been relayed to the engineering team and that I will be kept updated on any developments. So I am not particularly confident that a fix will be forthcoming.
It seems this problem may not be specific to the Mini as I can see it has also been reported for the WiiM Pro Plus:
