Hello!

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find a solution to this problem in this forum..

I'm using the HTTP API for my WiiM Pro to pause, resume, skip title etc. And it works wonderfully.

Unfortunately I am not able to pass a playlist to the wiim.
("command=setPlayerCmd; playlist:url:index" or with hex_playlist)

I have already tried many variants, but I can't do it. I have tried Tidal URLs, M3U URLs etc.
I've tried writing the playlist in HEX format or normal.

Does anyone have a working example for me? Even a Tidal playlist would be best as I use this service.

Thank you very much!!!
 
Havent't found anything by myself still..

There seem to be similar players around, f.e. airScope, here is a link to their HTTP API: HTTP API

But that didn't help, as they describe the need of hexing the url, but without working examples..

Anyone any tipps? :)
 
Use UPnP via SOAP. Examples from Arylic in the attached .zip file.
Edit config.inc to your WiiM's IP address.

FYI: You can play a preset you've pre-defined to the WiiM player with:

command=MCUKeyShortClick:preset#

e.g. command=MCUKeyShortClick:3

That isn't the same as being able to play any Tidal (or Qobuz or Spotify etc.) playlist, of course, but it's simple and works fine...

(Thanks to @onlyoneme for this tip, in this post)
