Thank you, that was the answer I was looking for. The streaming services should be more transparent about this for the non-audiophiles. I'm just glad the Wiim is decompressing it and giving me the full bitrate.
Picked up a Inovato Quadra. Cute. Will give it a try. Thanks for the heads up.
I’m sure they’re working on it and will release it as soon as they can. You can always ask to be put on their beta user list and help test it…
Again no fix for Deezer.
A new feature "Support Multiroom for the TIDAL Master content" has been mentioned before but I cannot confirm it.
Mini really needed some bugfixing, I think we must wait a bit longer for more complex API change in case of Deezer.Again no fix for Deezer.
I use it daily, and it works fine for me.
Hi there, I see this wasn't on the list of fixes for the Sept 29 update and isn't listed on Wiims page of known issues. This is a massive problem because it makes the Wiim unusable if you have Deezer. In some cases albums will just stop playing because the service is no longer connected. So I'm stuck. Can't you contact Deezer and work to get app support like you have with Spotify? That would mean we could use the proper Deezer app as well which works much better.
Having used Amazon HD for a couple years, did a one month Qobuz trial, although I prefer it over Tidal,. Amazon has a much better interface and app... Not to mention Amazon is cheaper.
It‘s on their known issues page and on their roadmap with a planned fix for Sept 30… I guess we need to wait some more days (which kind of doesn’t matter after more than 6 months
).I’m not aware that Deezer has a native casting or connect feature like Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Amazon Music Alexa Cast etc, so WiiM contacting Deezer wouldn’t change the situation. I‘m afraid you‘re stuck with Bluetooth on Android or airplay if you use iOS if you want to use the Deezer app wirelessly with the Mini. I think Deezer supports Chromecast, but the WiiM Mini doesn’t, although the WiiM Pro will.
From my experience, Deezer support for Chromecast is unreliable. Works 90% of the time but disconnects and unable to reconnect often. It also automatically switches to compressed, lower SQ, streams when the server sees Chromecast as an end-point. Switched to Tidal as Amazon Music HD and Qobuz are unavailable on my country but their catalog is very much slanted towards rap, hip-hop and such. Apple music is quite good and inexpensive but again, not bit-perfect or lossles through Android and can't work with Wiim mini, only Chromecast with AAC codec.
