Youtube music integration

[BigFreaky]

Can you please add an integration with youtube music?

I know that it can be done through the chromecast integration, but would be handful and better to have it on the wiim app, like the one with Amazon music.

True. I'm just glad 15 seconds isn't the norm. This is my first time using Chromcast. I'm sure it will be fixed in the upcoming weeks / months, looking at how efficiently the Wiim team works

Could someone at least answer what are the plans to improve the delay? Is there anyone working on this?

Chromecast also has some issue with yt music in a way that when you switch the songs, sometimes, for a very short moment the current song plays again from the begining, and only then switches to the new one

The integration is impeccable, my local and online YTM libraries appear as one with additional albums and tracks for the artist combined and linked for online music.

The downside is that the interface is not as responsive as LMS or Roon (it seems to be the online libraries slowing it down which I don't have integrated in the other environments), and metadata scraping has been throttled as apparently, they were crushing MusicBrainz with an enormous number of API calls after the initial launch and will only download as you browse to a track/album/artist.

I'm also not seeing full metadata making it to my Wiim using Squeezelite (Wiim app just shows "SQUEEZELITE"), or my Vero4K OSMC box using DLNA (Track name only with no artist name displayed), but this isn't a big issue as Music Assistant is the interface I'm looking at while playing.
