Beta Test: DLNA Cast

onlyoneme said:
Not sure if it's the issue with the latest Ultra FW, but the Ultra disappeared from the list of available DLNA targets. Probably doesn't matter as the DLNA cast feature seems to be abandoned...

Is the Ultra still not appearing with this latest beta?
 
I’m not getting any audio when using my Ultra’s USB out when casting to it from my Pro Plus - maybe because it’s a 320kbps MP3? Ticket submitted.

TBH, was expecting more from this beta, like the ability to choose the output file type/ resolution as mooted weeks back.

And it still shows my Philips Hue hub as a DLNA target even though that was one of the first tickets I submitted. Maybe if I play to it all my lights will flash in sequence with the music 🤣🤣
 
Again, this beta has gone very quiet, as has the persistent group beta. And still no sign of Android app with the favourites tab…
 
This morning I was notified by Home assistant that it found a new dlna device!
Running ver 5.2.627753

Oh, my bad.
Anyway, before this update it wasn't even showing as an dlna renderer, so at least there's progression.

Guess that’s something in your HomeAssistant setup then as WiiM devices have been DLNA/UPnP renderers since their inception

Nah, I have the pro plus as well, which was announcing just fine.
It only showed as a squeezebox.
I even logged a ticket for the missing dlna and trying to opt for this beta.

Sorry, WiiM ultra does not support DLNA function at present.

Best Regards,
WiiM Support

DLNA cast to WiiM worked few days ago, is it disabled now?

Still working for me from my pro plus on v 4.8.626752. Has your beta firmware perhaps been updated to the public version which doesn’t have this feature yet?

Yes, my Pro Plus still has v 4.8.626752, and is still "working", and as unlistenable as it ever was.:rolleyes::(

Casting to the WiiM from third party control points has always been supported, and always will. This feature is about casting from the WiiM to DLNA renderers.
