Controllers and Music services

I am using up to date sw om my system and app. I have Sonos Connect gen2 playing Tidal. Why do songs end abrupt just before real end? I do not find any setting about fading between songs. Anything I can do?I am using ethernet cable to the router. I have 1GE switches and 250Mbit WAN.

There’s a five year old thread (now closed) asking for this to be addressed and many comments agreeing and proposing potential fixes.I’d like to revive the converstion because it’s so much part of a good playback experience to be able to change what’s coming without stopping play in order to do so. Surely this is a necessary functionality for any music app!!

i’m so disappointed…my phone can connect just fine to my somnos system but soince updating my mac to macos 15.0.1sonos app can’t see my system i check in security settings, sonos app is allowed 

nowadays every Sunday spoiled with this new Sonos controller, i can’t find a * thing!  the * who developed this so called upgrade should never have been hired. can i download n re-install the old version please, please, please, please…..  PLEASE !!!*Moderator Note: Modified in accordance with the Community Code of Conduct.*

Provocative question. Currently still running the 16.1 app on Android. Have a range of products from S1s through to Arc + pair  Era300s. System is mainly used for listening to music from NAS and surround sound for TV/movie watching. Some functionality is now greyed out in the 16.1 app, other than that I'm happy with the old app.Is the new app now safe to upgrade to? What would Sonos representatives present on this forum recommend? Is your new app now safe to use? Is it a better experience versus the old app?As an objective measure for when the Sonos executive team should start to receive bonuses again I'd suggest an 90%+ yes response rate to these questions would be a good yardstick. 

Litt Live (formerly Dash Radio) inside Sonos has had an issue on my system for several months. When I play a Litt Live station, it gets added to the list of "Recently Played" items in Sonos.However, when I try to replay that Litt Live station from the "Recently Played" list, Sonos always serves a "Content is Unavailable" error. I tried to troubleshoot this with Sonos a couple of days ago, but they couldn't help.After almost 2 hours wasted on the phone rep and with their chat rep, they finally told me that the reason for the problem was that Litt Live "had been removed from Sonos" and was no longer an available service. They said that the Sonos developers had just had not gotten around to removing the Litt Live service from the services available, which is why I was still able to remove and re-add Litt Live (per their instructions) to try to troubleshoot. Does anyone know if this correct? Is Litt Live no longer available as a service inside of Sonos? Thank you.

With the new app is there a way to create multiple households?  Does the concept of multiple households still exist in new controller app? 

When I change radio stations the Sonos screen does not change to the new station. Tonight, several hours ago, I was playing BBC Radio 4, I then switched to Radio 3, then BBCScotland, then Radio Swiss Classic, then MDR Rundfunk. However, the screen still tells me I’m playing BBC Radio 4 !!!Dear Sonos reps, were you aware of this, or am I first in line?

Does anybody know how exactly the Sonos Music Library update process works ?I get intermittent update failures when initiating the update from my PC Sonos Controller app, but the proverbial “//nas/music_share folder is no longer available” message will always appear within the first few seconds of the update. If it gets beyond this then the update proceeds for sometimes hours, but will work.I just wonder what exactly is happening in those first few seconds that causes the error and then when you get past this point what is then happening.My understanding from Sonos is that once the update is underway all communication is between the Sonos speakers and the NAS drive (in my case) and the index is then replicated around each of the speakers or Amps. Apart from initiating the update, the Controller (PC) plays no part.It seems there’s some initiation process right at the start that frequently fails, throws the error message to the Controller and doesn’t move on to the main update.Out of int

Has Sonos/Last.FM scrobbling been dropped? It’s not working for me (at least from my iOS app). This article seems to support the observation. For those of us using Sonos to stream otherwise unScorobble-able services like Apple Music, it's such a loss. I know Sonos has bigger problems, but if anything can be brought to bear from this end to get us scrobbling again, we'd be so grateful.

I have 6 and unless you want to play un plug one plug in other down load sonos 1 download sonos 2. redownload app, delete app plug in holding button until light blinks white and red. Hold button down until green light blinks complete trash 

**Alternative app that works perfectly with my Sonos system**The Sonophone app works perfectly and now I can finally use my Sonos system again.The new Sonos app is unreliable and unresponsive.  For Sonos to release this update with so many flaws was negligent and incompetent.  It made my (extensive and very expensive) Sonos system unusable. 

Hi, I use the latest Spotify App on iOS 18.0 and setting up the alarm with a Spotify playlist does not workwether I use and existing alarm or create a new one the following happens:Open Edit Alarm → Music I search for my playlist  Select the playlist get “Set Alarm music” promt - “ would you like to use”XXX” for your alarm music tap “OK”  App goes back to Alarm overview “Alarms” ( I can see it briefly stepping back in “Edit Alarm”, then back to overview “Alarms”)  Alarm music is not changed / still Sonos ChimeI tried reconnecting Spotify, reinstall App and its Spotify premium

My Sonos app is multiple zones and we can’t figure out how to get them back.  Any suggestions?

Hi all,How do you manualy rearange queue order? Is it possible?Thank youNeven

Finally after lots of battles, I have enabled Sonos to play an Apple music track .  Two questions: why doesn’t it report what it’s playing and separately: why can’t I edit tracks in my music library - perfectly possible under previous iterations.

Just commenting here. I suppose I’m yet another frustrated user approaching the end of my Sonos relationship. I have mostly wired Sonos amps with a few scattered wireless devices (soundbars and freestanding Sonos speakers. I’ve had constant issues for years. sporadic functionality. Everyone’s answer always seems to be unstable network. But I’m pretty confident that’s not the problem. If so it is the only set of devices that ever has an issue.  today I deleted and reloaded the Sonos app rebooted my wireless rebooted all my Sonos devices trying to fix a problem. . Sonos sees titles online just fine, it can see the Devices on my network , but when you go to play a title it stalls and comes back with an error message that says something went wrong. Do t know what that would be because their error messages give you no clue. Nothing seems to work to fix it. I am beyond tired of this s***. Last Christmas before A 200 person party at the house Sonos has been working for days nonstop perfectly

Hello, As Sonos claims to make the new s2 app more user friendly and customable.  please allow users to add their streaming radio url’s. Tunein is horrible. I don’t wat to pay for a relay to listen commercial free.Just counted the commercials during one tune turner song! 3 times !! 3 times serious a commercial for Disneyland Paris! So disturbing. so Sonos, allow users to add streaming urls. regards, willem   

I have Android controllers and have been investigating rolling back to S1 in search of stability and the functions I got used to over the years which have now disappeared.I dug an old P5 and an old Android tablet out of storage and set up the S1 App on the tablet from the App Store and on my Win 10 PC from Sonos’ website.  Setup went smooth as silk (I didn't even have to power off my S2 speakers, everything on the same sub-net) and I now have S1 v11.14 build 572150280 on both my PC and the tablet and S1 v11.14 build 572151190 firmware on the P5.  Sonos Radio was there already and I installed Amazon Music, BBC Sounds and the excellent iBroadcast having spent 5 days uploading my library to it non-stop over my pitifully slow broadband connection. All these work perfectly and I thought I was on a roll.Then I went to hook up to my music library copies of which, for whatever reason, sit on two separate Synology NAS units, both of which are on ethernet connections. My S2 system runs off one o

I have owned a Sonos since they were featured on Queer Eye donkeys years ago. I have owned the original CR100 controllers and updated to the new series 3 years ago. How the f$%k do I select a different room to control without switching whats playing in my current room?I really hope all the people involved with the new app are burned at the stake. If asked, I now actively discourage people from buying a Sonos product. Cant even figure out on mobile how to change music… I have to go to the desktop app.  Associated Product: ---------------------------------Beam: BasementPlay:1: Basement (LS)Play:1: Basement (RS)Play:3: Basement StorageSonos One: Ellas SonosPlay:1: James SonosSonos Move: Jeremy Office (R)Sonos Move: Jeremy Office (L)Sonos Five: Kitchen (L)Sonos Five: Kitchen (R)Sonos Five: Living Room Sonos (RS)Sonos Arc: Living Room SonosSonos Five: Living Room Sonos (LS)Beam: Master BedroomSub: SubSub Mini: Sub MiniSonos One: Williams Sonos 

I posted this in another topic, but it seemed that it required its own topic, as I couldn’t find any existing posts about it: Yes, in addition to the multiple copies of albums, which appears to happen due to multiple artists on an album, the track listings are also screwed up due to multiple album artists. And YES, I HAVE “SORT FOLDERS BY” SET TO “SONG NUMBER”.  Just wanted to clarify. The track listings are now sorted by the “Artist” meta data and then the track number.  Here’s an example from my library from Tha Alkaholiks album “21 & Over” - this is the order of the tracks listed and the Artist metadata, so you can see how the sorting is broken by sorting on the Artist.  All the meta data for these tracks are fine - the track listing is displayed correctly in the Apple Music application, but here’s what Sonos displays for the track order: Track 02 - Tha AlkaholiksTrack 03 - Tha AlkaholiksTrack 04 - Tha AlkaholiksTrack 08 - Tha AlkaholiksTrack 09 - Tha AlkaholiksTrack 07 - Tha Al

Why is the new app so bad. I can’t clear the queue of music. Does any one know how to do this. Very frustrating.   

the app shows no system found and then crashes.All the time. 

So my App (running on a Samsung S21 Ultra) doesn't always show the correct song being played through my speakers. If I pause and then restart, it updates and shows the correct song.Any ideas?

Is it possible to cast/play music to my S1 speakers using my streaming service app? If not, then is my only option using the S1 app?When I use the S1 app and try to access my streaming service (currently Amazon Music), and I use the “search” function, it doesn’t return the same results as in the Amazon Music app (sometimes it misses a few results).Is this maybe a problem with how Sonos S1 and Amazon Music work together or does anyone know a better way of using the S1 app?Thanks!
