My C10 received this update yesterday.

 

[Mr Ee]

Seems that it also added the option to turn off the status light.

I hadn’t noticed that, but now I have.

There’s still no smart presets option, which would be very useful to offset the volume differences between different preset stations.

 

[QuarryHunslet]

I have found a possible bug with the presets, and am posting it here for now, because it may have been caused by this firmware update.

I have the C10, which has 6 preset buttons on the top panel. These buttons have a ring around them, which illuminates when the preset is selected.

This morning I added three of the Radio Paradise stations as presets to my three empty preset positions.

These all worked as expected when pressing the physical buttons on the speaker panel, I.e. the station changed, and the ring around the button illuminated.

However, when I select the Radio Paradise presets using the list of presets in the WiiM Home app, the station changes, but the ring around the appropriate button does not illuminate.

The buttons for my other three preset stations all illuminate as expected when selected by button or app.

I tried replacing the Radio Paradise presets with BBC Radio stations, and the button rings illuminate as expected via button, or app.

Is anyone else able to reproduce this issue with Radio Paradise stations as presets?

This may also affect the A10 speaker, so I would appreciate it if someone else could try to reproduce this before submitting a support ticket.

 

[QuarryHunslet]

Is nobody else available to check this out.

 

[Mr Ee]

Is nobody else available to check this out.

I should be able to try with the C10 later tomorrow.
It's currently in an unusual setup, being a TV's 'soundbar'.
Small TV with one hdmi port has a chromecast in it, and as the C10 doesn't have optical in the tv optical goes to a wiim amp pro (with nothing else at all physically connected to it) which is in a wiim group with the C10.
Yes, it's worth the effort as the tv speakers really are awful.

I'm sure you know a few people with A10s you could press into service.

 

[QuarryHunslet]

Thanks, I was hoping that some of them might have responded yesterday.

 

[Burnside]

Ouch, I felt that dig in my ribs

I can confirm the same behaviour on the A10 - the button presses/lights are reflected in the app, but selection in the app isn't reflected on the button lights while the correct content plays.

Will you raise a ticket, or shall I?

Cheers

Does it work as expected with non Radio Paradise preset stations?

we can both raise a ticket.

Ticket number #536619 raised.

Doesn't seem to matter what's in the preset - a button press in reflected in the app, but not vice versa as far as I can see

Do the rings around the preset buttons on the speaker top panel not light up when the buttons are pressed, or selected from the presets list in the app?

Mine seem to work for every station I tried, apart from the Radio Paradise ones.

 

[Burnside]

Sorry, that's what I meant - they light up when pressed, but not when selected from the app. I have one playlist, one BBC station and two Radio Paradise stations in the four A10 presets

That's surprising, the BBC stations work properly for my C10, I tried BBC Radios 2, 3, & 6, and they all made the button rings light up when selected from the app.

Tried again, and it lights up for my first selection of a bbc station preset, but after that no. Almost seems at times that it works for the first selection but not again. Whatever the issue is, it should be consistent for all pressers - light up the button whether it’s selected on the unit or on the app.

So it's definitely a bug, and should be reported.

Done. Ticket 536623
