Presto Classical

Presto Music has a new streaming service. Any way for this to be among the supported services by Wiim?

Hi, we're in touch with them. No timeline yet, but we hope to get them integrated into the WiiM OS platform.

Integrated into the WiiM app, or similar to Spotify/Tidal Connect? Their app would be difficult to replicate…

I know they use OraStream, as do some others.

Well, I've managed to figure out how to communicate with their little streaming box, enough to get all the necessary metadata for my VU display. Still streaming it via the WiiM's optical input, though. Would be great to be able to use their superb app, with the WiiM as a target (similar to Tidal Connect / Spotify Connect).

I want to buy a Wiim streaming amp but use Presto . Any update on Wiim integration date ?

Can I add my name to this list? I also have friends who would like to try Presto but are not attracted to Node.

Thanks, @QuarryHunslet . For those from the other thread who missed my update above, Presto told me on July 25 in an email: "We are currently working towards integrations [with the WiiM app] that we hope will be available in autumn."

Since autumn has come and gone, I've sent Presto an email asking for an update.

Hi, Presto on our list of integrations. We have some other integrations in the queue at the moment and we hope to get Presto integrated this year.

Thanks for this, it's very interesting. Do you have a source please?

I am also interested in this integration; I'm actually waiting for it before buying a Wiim device

So until WiiM integrate this (if they do), what is the best way to listen to Presto via the WiiM - P10 Steamer > Optical > WiiM ?

For a different non-supported service, Classical Archives, I use an iPad and Airplay the output to WiiM. This limits the bit rate, but it's good enough for my ears and only requires equipment I already own. And sometimes I use Presto or Classical Archives to find an album and then stream it from Qobuz. Not sure if that's quite ethical.

Or just buy a Eversolo A6/8 ..

It’s fully integrated now
