Hi
I am trying to play my library from my laptop using foobar and dlna but no matter what i try my foobar cannot see the wiim ultra. In the same network, my android phone can see it. Can anyone suggest what to try? Thanks
 
Do you have the “UPnP MediaRenderer Output” component installed and can you see any other UPnP players on your network?
 
I notice there’s also a “UPnP/DLNA Renderer, Server, Control Point” component which would appear to make your foobar library visible as a upnp server to the WiiM home app - do you maybe have that instead?

Do you have the WiiM-specific settings in your foobar?

Any of those components are obsolete as they either only work on the old 32bit version of foobar or are already included in the standard package.
 
Yes, sorry before asking i have spent 2 days trying everything... I am posting because i ran out of ideas to try really...
Also the reason for foobar is because my sacd iso collection

What about the settings from my earlier post?
 
Thank you all for taking the time
I got above open but there are tons of things there... What should i check for?
Just opening the page is enough of a test

So it seems to be a UPnP discovery issue. Is your Ultra on WiFi, and if so is it being served by the same access point as another UPnP renderer that has been listed in foobar?

It might be worth checking discovery with Jriver's UPnP renderer analyser: https://www.whitebear.ch/dmra.htm

I moved to jriver and working great
Thank you all
I use JRiver and have very few problems with DLNA to my Pro and Mini. Since you have ISO, I have found that I can stream DSD files to my Wiim Pro using DoP and it will pass them through to my DSD capable DAC. Only works for 2.822 MHz DSD. I can provide more details if that is of interest. I do not have ISO to check if that works.
