Simultaneous Outputs

[eplbjk]

What is the status of enabling simultaneous outputs ie. analog, coaxial, toslink ?

 

[Burnside]

Haven’t heard of any progress in that area. There’s even been a suggestion from support that the hardware can’t provide that but who knows?

Best raising a ticket to WiiM via the more/feedback section in the app to see what the official line is.

 

[eplbjk]

Will do,

Thx

Just submitted a feedback ticket stating how I use coax out for my music right now, but would really appreciate if the RCA Line Out was always on, so that I can hook up my spectrum analyzer.

[eplbjk]

Yes, I would like the Coax or optical active along with the RCA Line out (fixed).

Can this be done via firmware update? I think if that was possible wiim would already gave us that feature.

I tend to think so too. And as I said, a support agent told me the hardware doesn’t support it - one of the downsides of a “system on a chip” perhaps…

Which is strangely in direct conflict with the ultra faq

Question: "Can it be configured to send the audio to all output channels simultaneously -- both Analog and Digital?"
Wiim response: "We can output to all channels simultaneously with software update that we will do later."

It’s not the only response in that faq that’s at best ambiguous

If that was the case, they have enough time to do it since the roadmap is nearing to its end. There’s hardly anything left on roadmap. Bug fix going forward.

I would really like to have coax and optical outputs working at the same time. I have the coax going into an RME ADI-2 DAC FS and the optical going into a Sonos Amp via the Sonos Optical Audio Adapter.

Toslink splitters are readily available and inexpensive. A two output splitter doesn’t even need power, though 3+ outputs will require an external power source.

Thanks for the tip. I just ordered one from Amazon.

We need "All" option in Audio output

We need "All" option in Audio output

Would be nice but probably not supported by hardware. Else I would think it had been implemented already, as it has been asked for for a long time.

This has been requested since the device came out. Wiim would have enable this feature if was possible.

 

[eplbjk]

I have just requested from support the ability to select two separate simultaneous USB outputs when connecting more than one DAC using a USB HUB as both show when connected. This feature should not be hardware dependent.

It's probably mostly a performance problem of the CPU.

I am using a Sonos Port to output digital to my stereo DAC and also to an integrated amp for my outside speakers. I was bummed to learn that the Wiim Pro can't do this.
