New Roadmap

[Wiimer]

This morning, I found a new roadmap.

WiiM Ultra Roadmap

Updated on Dec 28, 2025 Building the Future Together At WiiM, we believe your device should get better over time. We are sharing this roadmap to give you full visibility into our engineering pipeline—from active development to future concepts...

I'm sorry if I interrupted @RyanWithWiiM's work, but I couldn't stand it..

...I expect about 18 updates per year.
1 update = approx. 3 min. Total = 0.9 hours. I'll go and run a bath...

 

[Smartplug]

Room fit evolution? I wonder what would this feature will do to the current feature set.

• Standby & Clock: Option for a permanent clock (screensaver) during playback or standby, and adjustable timeout durations.

The management of positive gains and the possibility of saturation due to subject processing, autogain associated with roomfit/peq/gec (necessary since 2022 and the first gec)...still not there?
The presence of DRC mode to camouflage this (which renders any use of a VU meter obsolete), is this still not disabling?
Any visibility on its engagement "with a truepeak overload"?
To allow for an assessment of the necessity and need to reduce the level...
A fixed 3dB reduction as a precaution to provide margin for the ISPs?
Don't fool yourself, a very large majority of what you listen to is more than just flirting with zero and above...already without signal processing!
so these are real issues...

I will out myself and admit that I have no idea of what any of the above means.

Would you translate that to lay language please? It doesn't have to be the fully story, just a hint on what this is all about would be sufficient. Thanks.

No auto-gain...classic function associated with signal processing, equalization, etc.
+
a DRC ""bypass""" mode is present but neither explicit nor detailed...
and not what it implies...
etc
We still have to work around it manually... (A "true peak overload" feature would be very helpful, especially when using the internal DAC.)

A serious, classic topic, well-known by wiim, since spring 2022 and firts gec mode...

(Regarding the ISP issue... a margin mode of around -2 or -3dB "fixed," like on RME solutions, etc., could be offered or even automatically included upstream of the internal DAC.)

If you don't explain what DRC and ISP mean it is not really "lay language"

Him could also do a little research... just a little... just a few clicks... right?


I waste enough time repeating these things over the years, making myself look like an idiot/annoying person, not to mention making things worse...
(Don't be fooled... these barely legible messages are a difficult and foolish effort on my part.. 🫩)

You are right
DRC = Democratic Republic of Congo
ISP = Internet Service Provider
