GarageBand

[IanC]

Bought a WiiM Amp today specifically to connect my 27” Mac to some decent external passive speakers, in order to play my GarageBand songs back.
Have connected it via AirPlay, but every time I hit play/pause there’s a 2-3 second delay before it starts/stops playing.
It does it with other music as well as anything from GarageBand.

Any ideas why it’s doing it, and how I fix it?
Cheers
Ian.

I believe all Wiims buffer the audio received over the network. So even after pressing stop/pause there will buffered audio left to play.
As far as I know the size of the buffer is not configurable

Is this an airplay thing?
I don't use airplay, I've never noticed such delays when pausing / resuming music on any of my wiims, including an amp pro.
