Spotify lossless not working?

[Stegtir]

Just thought I would share my solution

After many reboots, cache clears etc I still couldn't get lossless to work on my Pro Plus.

I hit up Google and found that Chromecast doesn't support lossless audio as it compresses all streams.

So I went into settings on Wiim home and disabled Chromecast and went back to Spotify App and the Spotify Connect logo showed up for the Wiim and I can now use lossless.

To think Ive been using Chromecast into Meridian DSP7200s all this time as well...

Hope this helps

Did you recognise, it's still a Spotify issue, not a WiiM issue?

Certainly, I am clearly aware of that but, this being a thread dedicated to the problem, it seemed useful to provide an update that it hadn't been resolved yet. Thanks, however, for the clarification
