I'm experiencing playback stutter when playing mp3 files from my local network DLNA server. The DLNA server is Minidlna running on Debian 12.
The stutter always happens on the exact same place of the file, i.e. when I rewind back a few seconds the same audio glitch can be heard in the same place - as if the file itself is broken. However this is not the case when playing the same file through BubbleUPNP on my phone (from the same DLNA server), or when playing the file locally on my PC.
I'm pretty sure I've not had this issue before, so I think it's a recent (months?) regression.
I've reported this to Wiim already, just wondering if anyone else has the same issue.
I can share the mp3 file if anyone is interested to try out.
 
No, I won't re-encode my entire mp3 collection :)

Hm, I cannot connect the Wiim to anything else atm. I only have Topping DX1 available but that does not have digital in. I'm just wondering if anyone else is able to reproduce the same problem with my files.
My apologies, I read that it was just a few files, not the whole collection.
 
So I only found time now to double check the issue. Unfortunately meantime my Wiim updated itself to the latest firmware, and I'm no longer able to reproduce the issue. :)
