I updated the network module in my Arcam SA30 today, and it has acquired a /webclient/#/main interface on its IP address, that enables internet radio streaming, Qobuz and Amazon music.
As a Smart Home device, it is addressable and I can stream to it and change the volume, whereas this web interface is letting me stream stuff to the amp, but I have no volume control. It's useful but puzzling! The interface was clearly designed with touchscreens in mind.
Can anybody tell me what this interface is supposed to be seen from? I think it was backported from a newer device (maybe JBL SA750 judging by the little amp picture) and thus is not in the manual. I wouldn't expect people to go find the dynamic IP and then open this interface via a mobile browser for example, so there must be an easier way to discover it, but I just don't know what it might be. I imagine it would be common to all Arcam's AVRs, as well as JBL and anything else vaguely smart made by Harman group (the hardware pre-dates the Samsung acquisition, but who knows?).
