WiiM devices

This component allows you to integrate control of WiiM Mini and Pro devices into your Home Assistant smart home system. Originally developed for LinkPlay devices by @nicjo814, @limych and @nagyrobi.

Installation

• Copy all files in custom_components/wiim_custom to your <config directory>/custom_components/wiim_custom/ directory.
• Restart Home-Assistant.
• Add the configuration to your configuration.yaml.
• Restart Home-Assistant again.

Configuration

It is recommended to create static DHCP leases in your network router to ensure the devices always get the same IP address. Recent models versions allow setting static IP address, if you see that option, use it.

To add WiiM units to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
media_player:
    - platform: wiim_custom
      host: 192.168.1.11
      name: Sound Room1


    - platform: wiim_custom
      host: 192.168.1.12
      name: Sound Room2
      uuid: 'FF31F09E82A6BBC1A2CB6D80'
      volume_step: 10

Configuration Variables

host:
(string) (Required) The IP address of the WiiM unit.

name:
(string) (Required) Name that Home Assistant will generate the entity_id based on. It is also the base of the friendly name seen in the dashboard, but will be overriden by the device name set in the Android app.

uuid:
(string) (Optional) Hardware UUID of the player. Can be read out from the attibutes of the entity. Set it manually to that value to handle double-added entity cases when Home Assistant starts up without the WiiM device being on the network at that moment.

volume_step:
(integer) (Optional) Step size in percent to change volume when calling volume_up or volume_down service against the media player. Defaults to 5, can be a number between 1 and 25.
