[Mr Ee]

I have to ask, what does this mean?
"track order retention during shuffle"

 

[Burnside]

LMS service selection is in a strange place under Voice in device settings - wouldn’t it make more sense for it to be a selectable service on the Music Services list on the Browse page, with its settings page from there?

Edit: ticket submitted

I have 2 questions:

1. I have never wanted replay gain, I have app 3.0.4 but I can’t see how to disable it for tidal, how do I do this?

2. There’s still no fix the volume led going out after a few seconds.

If you didn't enable it in your Tidal account settings in WHA then you don't have it.

If you didn't enable it in your Tidal account settings in WHA then you don't have it.

So it doesn’t apply it when using tidal connect?

You have to actively enable it first. Otherwise it's not applied.

 

[Dangogh]

Will normalize volume levels come?

 

[Wiimer]

Will normalize volume levels come?

Could you please try it?

On my Pixel 6, Android OS ver 15 the room correction procedure no longer displays my Dayton Audio USB microphone. In the previous version this behavior would indicate the Wiim app was using the phone's microphone.

 

[MrX]

As a test I blocked the USB microphone during the room calibration and sure enough it complained that it couldn't pickup the test tones, this would indicate it indeed is using USB microphone. Nonetheless, it would give me more confidence if old behavior would be restored.

Did you perform independent L/R correction? If so, that's what I found.

With stereo correction the the name of the mic is still displayed. I think that WiiM picked this up already.

PS:
It's probably more related to the app version, not the firmware version.

PPS:
In fact, this seems to be fixed in WHA 3.0.4 Android.

It seems I'm a dolt but I can't figure out/find how to do the independent L/R room correction. Any help would be appreciated. Also, where in the app does it show what mic one is using for RC?

You must first turn off the subwoofer setting in the WiiM app.

Next, when you run RC, after the sample audio plays, a dialog will appear to select stereo and L/R. Tap L/R.

Yes, L/R room calibration does not display the USB mic, and you're right Stereo calibration still does. For me 3.04 is still broke.
