This driver integrates streamers based on the LinkPlay platform, such as SoundSmart, WiiM and Arylic, with ELAN, so playback, volume, source selection and presets can be controlled from the automation.
The streamer’s own sources (Wi-Fi, AirPlay and Spotify Connect), as well as Bluetooth, USB and the device’s physical inputs, are available in the system.
