Beta Test: Room Correction for Android (Feature now publicly available)

[slartibartfast]

Please send the device MAC without thinking.

Done but it definitely needs to be copy and paste friendly.

Does it enable the support for external mics?

Yes, please see my first post.

I’ve run out of devices to put beta firmware on - my Amp has usb out, the Pro Samba, the Pro Plus DLNA Cast and I’m waiting on the Ultra’s USB Out as I’d prefer to use that over the Amp. Once I get the last one, I’ll probably submit my Amp for this Android RC beta…

I've reported all my devices for different betas but I got only DLNA cast so no issue for me

Does it enable the support for external mics?

I am hoping it recognises my imm6 with 3.5mm jack connection. We will see.

Does it enable the support for external mics?

I would expect/hope so. Also a little confused if this is for beta firmware rather than a beta app, as I thought most of not all of the work was done on the phone

So I choose the good one
thank you @Wiimer

Also, WiiM have said that for the current iOS RC that it would use an external mic if it detected one, but there’s no confirmation in the app to show that’s the case. Guess ‘proper’ use of an external mic means it needs to be able to support the import of calibration files.

thank you @Wiimer

Which is the good one?

 

[Clark10]

the Mac address coming from the Wiim amp device info you got in the app

 

[Wiimer]

I believe that the IMM-6C will work for the Android RC, but I still can't rule out the plan to use the WiiM remote...

They don't want people to participate in this beta programme who can't enter their MAC addrss(es) into the application form.

If you intend to use your WiiM device using Wi-Fi and Ethernet you'll have to provide both MAC addresses.

Does it enable the support for external mics?

I'm excited to find out.

You must be joking about both MAC addresses. Are you?

Not at all. And the order also matters.

The iPhone microphones are not perfect. Simply so few iPhone models exist compared to android variants that it's easier to compensate for differentials over the whole iOS ecosystem than it is for android.
AV units with room correction often comes with a cheap electret capsule microphones. Certainly not the highest quality but superior to anything in any mobile phone.

I'd happily purchase a WiiM recommended usb mic for the purpose.
I guess the other option is a list of calibrated android phone models or to check box that you are ok to proceed with a unknown and uncalibrated android device.

I’m not sure if the mic on iPhone could reach 20khz. Can some give answer on this?

 

[rky]

can someone please tell me the current version number of the rc beta

 

[slartibartfast]

can someone please tell me the current version number of the rc beta

It hasn't been released yet AFAIK

 

[Brantome]

can someone please tell me the current version number of the rc beta

I don’t think it’s out yet
