Fixed volume vs volume limit

[Smartplug]

Isn’t the limiter same effect as fixed volume off and adjust the slider like the limiter?

The volume control for me changed the volume to lower by itself or could not stay at a specific setting . I hope with the firmware it is fixed

Where is the volume limit?
Not found in Audio settings.

Not found in Audio settings.

It’s part of the firmware updates as well as the new app that was release yesterday on iOS.

Can I just confirm that having the volume in the WiiM app fixed at 100%, and then controlling it from my amp, I’m still getting bit perfect signal please?

You need to set fixed volume on and limiter to 100%

@Smartplug, @Achim1811,

Thank you.
It doesn't seem to be coming to my Android yet.

Thanks I’ll see if I can find the limiter. I had an update to the app today

My Android app is still not updated too.

No volume limiter that I can see.

iOS or Android?

It's only for iOS atm.

Ok thanks. I have an iPhone too. I’ll check later.

What I for a while noticed that the AppStore does not show it as update. I have to search Wiim in the AppStore again and then a button "update" instead of "open" appears. The only app with this behavior in my collection.

I've tested it again and I was wrong, it does not work as a min function. It's rather a multiplier.

So output volume level as decimal value = volume on the device as decimal value (1 for fixed) x volume limiter as decimal value.

Decimal value is in the range <0..1>.


TBH I don't think it's a good idea.

 

[onlyoneme]

Nah, it's more complex:



50% volume and 100% limiter is giving different result than 100% volume and 50% limiter...

 

[BadMan]

The final output volume level is the volume set on the device (or 100% if fixed), but no higher than the volume set in the limiter.

thank u

and that means now?

That means that the final volume is a multiplication of the volume set on the device and of the volume limiter.
