App, Parametric EQ, Choice for Left, Right or Stereo dissapears. A few days ago i received App version 2.11.5.24906. So iam not sure, if this is problem of last App or this Firmware.

Would you prefer to have the app first, not being able to test it because the accompanying firmware wasn't available yet?

Six and two threes. It appears the app is available for some but they all complain that L/R PEQ has disappeared. Could that be related to the RC with L/R PEQ?

Who knows? I think we will, rather sooner than later.

Before upgraded to 5.0.628359 version, DLNA(Synology) playback worked with "Wiim Home" app.
After upgrade, It does not work. Tracks are skipped. Bubble Upnp does not work either.
Can i downgrade to previouse firmware version?

If you ask WiiM they may accede to that, but you really should also submit a bug report by raising a ticket via the settings/feedback section in the app so they can inspect your log and hopefully provide a fix for all users.

Edit: you might perhaps try rebooting your router and power cycling the amp to see if that helps.
