Gapless mode (setNextURI) issues for UPnP interface

I was trying to use BubbleUPnP with LMS to see if the seeking worked there, but nothing did :)

That is the "UPnP/DLNA Media Interface" then.
Development wise it hasn't had any work for maybe 10 years.

I have seen both ALAC and FLAC files with .alc and .flc extensions respectively which I think were the alternate norm years ago.

The plugin system needs a revamp/cleanup as there's no way of knowing that. There's a lot of trust put into third party code too, although it's no different to foobar2000 I suppose and I use that.

So probably not an issue then.

IIRC the guy who wrote it was a Logitech employee. They had the idea that it could be an all singing "media" server and added that plugin predominantly to allow streaming of video but then things changed. I don't think it is the only server to present .flc files though.

What most LMS people actually do is run LMS purely for music (obviously) but have a UPnP server for video (and optionally music which uses the same file store). In my case I have everything file wise in one place (NAS) and 2 x LMS servers both using the same files via NFS plus 1 x Plex also using the same music files and a second store for video. The NAS is backed up to another on-site NAS but also synced via site-to-site VPN to another offsite NAS where I also have an LMS (but no Plex). Where I am now (at alternate offsite location) I can listen to everything in my library but my WiiM Mini isn't here, its in my main office.

As far as the beta firmware with LMS UPnP/DLNA Bridge 2.2.1 goes I think we can say that it now "works" as far as it is going to. The areas where it doesn't are edge cases. I'd still like to see a native squeezelite client though as although it "works" the Bridge is ultra fiddly to set up and beyond a lot of people's comprehension. A native plug and play device would open the WiiM up to the real LMS market which is crying out for such a thing.

Also, were you proxying LMS rather than the WiiM? I assume that's what you meant as the other way around doesn't work for me.
Proxying LMS changes the URL that's delivered to the WiiM.

Yeah, I guess that’s the case
 
WiiM Mini firmware 4.6.517037 - LMS UPnP/DLNA Bridge v2.2.2

Playing local FLAC and Qobuz. Gapless seems to still be working in passthrough mode.
 
With latest firmware update : problem seems to be solved here.

Someone can confirm ?

Thanks to the devs !!!
