Four days plus, since this Release... And not available to any of my 3x ProPlus units...
I'd really wanted to (re-)explore the DSD Audio possibilities this Long Weekend...

I was already starting to worry that there was apparently something wrong with mine... but there was simply no update.

This version appears as a beta firmware option for my Pro Plus, described as "Beta Test: Optical-in Channel Swap Fix"...

@WiiM Support , @WiiM Team - is this a beta or public release?

FYI following your post, wanted to DL the new, listed Beta , nothing happened -- yet next I received 'new upgrade available' window, all installed well and xxx458 is now running fine as regular new firmware (not beta)
all is well

Yeah, I only just checked the “beta” contents and it’s the same changes as listed in the opening post - looks like it’s perhaps mistakenly been tagged as beta

My Pro Plus states xxx458(beta). I switched back to standard firmware.

Strangely, this is the first time a gazetted firmware update has not come through for me. It's been quite a few days now, so I'm guessing something has gone wrong. I'm not too concerned as everything I use and need is working perfectly, oh, except for the lock screen controls which disappeared with the WHA 3.2.2 update. But again, no big deal for me.

Yes, it seems so. @WiiM Support @WiiM Team can you please clarify if this is a general firmware release or for Beta only?
