Decoupling Volume Controls for Different Inputs

[mason2spectral]

I use my WiiM with my desktop computer over optical and via Bluetooth for music sometimes. It would be nice if there is an option to decouple the volume and have separate volume controls for each input source!

You can set the "Per-Source Volume Control" in the settings input page

Ok, cool. I missed that change/update.

I now have a usecase for per-source volume control too and noticed it doesn‘t work when switching to Bluetooth, at least on my Amp Ultra. For example Ethernet is set to 20, HDMI ARC is set to 30. It works when switching between Ethernet and HDMI ARC, but when switching to Bluetooth it always stays at the same volume from the input source before (20 when coming from Ethernet or 30 when coming from HDMI ARC).

(20 when coming from Ethernet or 30 when coming from HDMI ARC).

If you are using a preset to switch, do you have 'Follow current volume ' selected on the preset?

 

[Djinn206]

I am not using a preset, I change the input source via the browse tab in the WiiM Home App.

Ok. Do you have the 'per source volume control' toggle switched on under audio input in the app?

Yes, otherwise it wouldn’t work between Ethernet and HDMI ARC, it‘s just Bluetooth which seems to follow the current set volume.

it‘s just Bluetooth which seems to follow the current set volume.

I have just tested this on my Ultra. You are .correct, so it's either a bug or this function isn't available yet for the BT input. Might be worth raising a ticket with WiiM.

 

[Djinn206]

Thanks, I will raise a ticket. In the meantime I will use a preset for Bluetooth input with a set volume.

 

[Ronnie D]

I will use a preset for Bluetooth input with a set volume.

Or you could potentially set the volume to 25 for both other outputs and tune them up and down with the pre gain, and tune the Bluetooth the same way.
(I'm not being serious here, but, technically you could )
