Thanks everyone. The hum problem seems to have resolved after (1) using a different power outlet for the Mini; (2) replacing the signal cable from the Mini to the preamp; and (3) separating signal and power cables as much as possible. Don't know if any one of these was effective or a...

Thanks—I’ll try another power outlet.

I’ll try another RAC cable and post what happens. I haven’t noticed any change in the hum when I move or juggle the Mini or the cables but I’ll look more systematically. Thanks guys for your replies.

The hum stops when I remove the signal cable from the Wiim. It’s powered by the supplied plug into a normal power output.

Hi All I have a Wiim Mini with the Aux Out connected by cables to the Tuner input on a preamp. This system has recently developed a hum when the Mini is turned on (it's a 50-Hz hum, I'm in Australia). The hum is noticeable with the power amp volume control turned down completely, and increases...

Brilliant. Thanks, I think that's a fix.

I'm getting large volume changes even while a single track is playing when playing Tidal with a Wiim Mini. I'm using the Wiim Home iOS app on an iPhone. Both the Tidal and Wiim Home apps are the current versions and the Wiim Mini firmware is also current. I have the following settings: Tida...

Correct: the iOS app on my Mac doesn't show MinimServer. Might stick to the iPhone app for now--at least it plays the music files stored on a USB memory stick plugged into my router. Scanning other posts in this forum shows pretty widespread dissatisfaction with either the iOS or Mac OS Beta...

The issue seems to be the one identified by whodiini above. Minimserver works running the home app on my iPhone but not on my M1 Mac either with the native Mac OS app (version 0.1.5) or the iOS app (version 2.7.4). Is it worth raising this with Wiim support?

I have a similar problem with the Wiim Home app on an M1 MacBook running the most recent Mac OS (Sonoma 14.1.2). No problem though with the Home app on my iPhone. Home Music Share shows and plays via Serviio or MinimShare (if active) and even the music files on a USB memory stick in my router...

Thanks for your reply. Initiating playback on the app changes the play icon to the pause icon (II) but the moving bars chart indicator doesn't advance, and if it's dragged along the bar chart it immediately snaps back to the start (and the numeric indicator always reads 00.00). I tried...

Spoke too soon. The Home app on my Mac sees the files stored on the Mac when I go to 'My Music', but they don't play. When I go to 'Home Music Server' I get the attached screen which just keeps on searching ...

Ummm ... must have been something I was doing wrong. I just reinstalled the beta release of the home app for the Mac and it sees the music files on the Mac. Thx for all the replies.

I installed Serviio on my Mac and that worked--the Wiim app on my iPhone now shows the music stored on my Mac. (Are there better options than Serviio?) Unlike Doublej the Wiim Home app on my Mac doesn't show the music stored on the Mac. Perhaps I have to wait until a Wiim app built specifically...
