Controllers and Music services

Any info on what the fixes are for this?  I want to play my Moves outside but not if it means resets and frustrations once the battery passes 50%  

I would like to know if this is a good solution to play hi res files (24bit 192khz) on a sonos five stereo system.As far as I know and read in div. threads in this forum it is not possible to stream Apple Hi-Res lossless via the Sonos app (only AAC 256).  Amazon Music Ultra HD or Quobuz/ Tidal is limited to 24bit 48khz.Streaming from Apple Devices via Airplay is also limited to lossless (16bit 44khz).That's why I thought about the following:Usage of my Apple Devices (Mac or iPad) via DAC (e.g Topping DS 50 or FIIO) connect via USB and then use line in to Sonos five. I can see (via a borrowed RME ADI2 ) that I receive 24bit 192khz from my Apple devices.My question now is: is the SONOS five directly using this stream without any further conversions, or does it convert the stream, when it is played locally via the wired connection described above (Mac-USB-DAC-jack plug -Line in Sonos five)?Anyone using this solution already? How does it sound?Thanks a lot,regards tomyc

This is basic enough that I must just be missing it somewhere in the App.  How do I change the order of the podcast episodes in the Sonos app for PocketCasts?  I want the oldest unplayed episode on top, not the most recent.

My Sonos S2 app (up-to-date) has once again stopped working on Android 11, showing only screens with blank placeholders for everything except System, where it wants me to update the firmware on my Sonos One pair.Aside from the fact that I don’t generally want to install updates to make unknown changes to a stable system that I’m not asking for, and I resent being forced, my particular issue is that I’m afraid of losing access again from my Win7 desktop. It took a considerable effort of working around annoying Sonos roadblocks to get the mandatory S2 app running (with limitations) on Win7, and I’m afraid if I do one of these irreversible firmware updates on the speakers the Win7 app will tell me it can no longer access the speakers because Sonos has arbitrarily decided that it can’t.I know this is likely pointless grumbling, but is there any way we can get Sonos to consider:stop forcing unnecessary firmware updates make it clear what historical functionality will be lost with each firmw

I take my Sonos Roam with me to work. I’d love to listen to Sonos Radio HD..but apparently you have to be part of the “network” that is connected at home to play it - not sure if that’s because HD sound needs higher bandwidth or something else. So two questions: You still can’t use Sonos HD Radio unless you’re part of your “main” network, correct?  If #1 is correct, will that ever change so if you are on the go you can listen over cellular/bluetooth? I mean even if it’s not HD audio, just the fact it’s available would be nice.  My understanding is that you can’t listen at all unless you’re part of the main home network. 

So today I recieved an email saying that Sonos Radio was now available on the web, the email linked me to a website where I could sample stations for 45 minutes tops. Is this the planned extent for this web radio feature? 

Sonos has just sent me an email saying ‘Whats new on Sonos Radio’ here in the Uk Telling me great news Sonos Radio is online click on link to go to our new Radio Page WRONG the link takes me to their existing page with there products etc.anyone else received this premature email this morning looked online and see no new announcement from Sonos either  

When adding new sub-folders to the main folder in Music Library, is there a way to rescan the folder so that the new sub-folders are added?Or..Is the solution to delete the folder then add the folder after adding the new sub-folders?Mitch

When is this coming, either through casting (not bluetooth) or as a service?

I don’t see any Sonos-made Station on Sonos app. Pick any station shown on Sonos Radio website and search for its name on Sonos app, I see only third-party radio stations but no Sonos-made stations.For example, the Smooth Jazz station on Sonos Radio. I can play on my browser just fine, but when I search for “smooth jazz” in my Sonos app I see only third-party stations.I know that Sonos has created many high quality stations but I am not able to browse any of them in the app, let alone searching for it. In the “Browse Radio” page in the app, I see only third-party stations, no way to browse only Sonos-made stations. Please recommend what I should do.I use Google Pixel 6. Sonos app is on its latest version. My Sonos system is a pair of Sonos One SL.Thanks.

I have been listening to music on my Sonos system for a few ours and then the sound just stopped. The app still shows music playing.I closed app and restarted. I unplugged speakers and restarted. I unplugged modem and router and restarted. Still no sound coming from either speaker.Does anyone have a solution?

Organic growth - with your existing customers - is often considered preferable in business. So why did Sonos choose to abandon S1 users (besides keeping S1 wheezing along)? Yes, fanbros, I understand that Sonos’s adding additional features like Alexa compatibility required additional memory and, so, change, but why not communicate with, and try to incorporate, your existing customer base into the process?

Hi. I have been trying to get the tracks on my Amazon Music app and those that I can access via the Sonos app as I have too much 'clutter' on the Sonos version for example track duplicates. I have tried removing my Amazon account from within the Sonos app and reauthorizing it but no difference. For you to see what I mean I will post 2 screenshots one of the Amazon app (with just one track entry) and on the Sonos app with 6 track entries (one the Live! version which I never play!)Any ideas anyone?    

I’m using the Sonos app (14.6.1) on a Pixel 4a phone (Android 12), and on occasions when I go to the Search Tab and see my ‘Recent Searches’ the formatting seems to be messed up:  I’m not sure what triggers this, as it seems to happen fairly randomly but fairly regularly. If I close the app and reload it, the problem I think usually seems to sort itself out, but haven’t checked if this is consistently so. This is what I expect the screen to look like:  Does anybody else experience this, or know what is causing this?

How can I get the volume slider on the S2 app on an iPad to vibrate like it does on the iPhone ?

The latest app update makes my phone vibrate when I adjust the volume settings for our speakers.  Some people may like that feedback but I don't need it. How can I turn that feature off..?  Thanks!

Hi All,I recently upgraded my Connect to a Port so I could use S2. Everything upgraded fine and all my NAS settings ported over. However, since I started using S2, I have had occasional problems connecting to the NAS server. This rarely happened under S1, but is happening fairly often under S2. I have restarted the speakers, port, router and even deleted and re-added the NAS path and re-indexed the music library. Any ideas? Many thanks! -Steven

I recently upgraded to S2 at last and was disappointed to find that the S2 Controller for the Mac is still not remotely accessible.  There was a discussion about this on S1 years ago and I think that thread is Locke now.Most of the buttons aren’t labelled, so when you use it you just hear “button, button, button, button” as you move through items.  Then it seems impossible to give all the import bits focus.  I can’t navigate to the choose rooms button (although the dialog that appears does work with VO if I can somehow get lucky with the mouse), and neither the queue or browse panes seem to be usable at all.I’m really disappointed how little Sonos seem to regard the Mac app.  By way of contrast, the iPhone app is really great.  But if it worked, it would be much faster and more convenient for me to use the Mac in most cases. Is there any way of this ever getting any attention?  I feel that a lot of the issues are very likely to be trivial to fix. 

Neither I can’t play music from my library. i’ve got an Iphone thanks

I’ve been using Deezer in Sonos for sometime and it has the capability when you hear a song you really like to hit the “heart” button and instantly add to your favourites. I tried Apple Music and this feature was missing… also nowhere to be found in Amazon Unlimited, which doesn’t even allow you to add tracks to Amazon playlists (as far as I can see). What’s anyones experience in Tidal ? Or  Spotify? For me it’s an essential feature and for reasons I won’t go into I’m looking to switch streaming provider

Not sure this is the best place to post this……..but where do you post or submit Sonos feature requests?  I have been a long term Sonos user and have a few recommendations for features.   Please let me know if there is a better place to submit or post these…….where they are most likely to be voiced to Sonos representatives who may act if enough people suggest?  The first, is to suggest that the Tunein service allow sign-in so that you can use the Sonos App to listen to TuneIn Premium if you are paying for this anyhow.  I have seen requests for this going back at least 10 years, but Sonos does not seem to have ever added this.    I believe newer services similar to Sonos have added this, such as Bluesound, and see no obvious reason why this would not be relatively easy to implement.  I do think they should implement their own Sonos app for Apple watch I do think they should add a Sonos Controller app for Android TV so that Sony and other Android based smart TV’s can show what’s playing o

I’m hoping I’ve missed a really simple solution but I can’t find it.I’m loving listening to all my sources of music together on the Sonos app in my house, But when I leave the house and go walking with my headphones on. I’d like my phone to carry on playing the album/playlist/mixcloud show from where I left off.The Mixcloud app on Android for example doesn’t seem to carry over where I got to in a show on the Sonos app if then start listening directly on the app on my phone. Likewise albums / playlists.I have to use MediaMonkey Android on my phone separately to listen to the same playlist I was listening to on Sonos.I’d also like this functionality so I can switch from listening to Sonos speakers in the house to headphones at night.At the moment I’m living in a parrellel universe of Sonos Speakers and Headphones Just having the Sonos app play locally on your phone would surely solve all this?I have a 512GB sd card on my phone and I would be happy to upgrade to a 1 or 2 TB if it solved t

I'd like the ability to select a My Sonos playlist, and have the system remember my playing preference for the playlist in terms of shuffle, repeat, crossfade or none. Example scenario. The following 3 are added to My Sonos for ease of access via the app.1. An album by Counting Crows. I want it played in order as the artist desired. No crossfade.2. Classical Christmas from Spotify. I want this shuffled with crossfade.3. Sleeping white noise from my local music library. I want this single track repeated with crossfade. I'm quite sure this is currently not possible, so I'd ask Sonos to make it a feature. It could be something like "Playlist Options" after it's been added to My Sonos. Thoughts? Suggestions everyone? Thanks!

Morning all.  was hoping to get some help with an issue.  Every time I was to listen to something I need to re add the station on the app. I used to be able to just touch the play button and it would play the same station.  I’ve checked the app settings and the touch controls are set to on.  any help? 

Bit disappointed with the playlist choices on Sonos Radio HD, nothing further back than the 80s as far as I can find. Do you agree?
