Controllers and Music services

So when I made a playlist on YouTube music I got all the other playlists and put it in one big one which I’d 1,500 songs for some reason on the YouTube music app it shows 1,500 but when I play it on Sonos it only shows 999 am I doing something wrong? 

It seems that i have wifi and internet in order to play music on my sonosIs it so?

I recently transfer my playlist from Spotify to apple music but it isn't working properly. should i use MUSCONV tool? anybody uses this before.

Some have been asking for another hardware based dedicated Sonos Controller; although Sonos appears not inclined to re-introduce such a device. As it would happen I was watching a YouTube video by Peter Pee wherein he reviewed two products by IKEA. They are the: TRADFRI Hub which is a wireless hub that connects to your home Wi-Fi and acts much in the same manner as a Philips Hue Bridge for smart lights SYMFONISK Music Controller that pairs with the TRADFRI Hub and works with Sonos for play/pause/forward/back/volume control for Sonos speaker(s).The two devices are sold separately or as a bundle. The bundled cost is $51.98 USD. Selling the TRADFRI Hub separately makes sense as it can be paired with other IKEA controllers with different use.There is an app for iOS or Android devices used for setup of the TRADFRI Hub and pairing of the SYMFONISK Controller. All setup components come with the TRADFRI Hub which includes Ethernet cable, USB-A to USB micro cable for power transmission and a 2

Hi all. What will the audio resolution be with my current setup via S2 app using ‘uncompressed’. Turntable hooked to Sonos Connect > Pair of Play 1’s > Playbar. Thanks in advance. 

A few have added bbc sounds, it is not showing as an option for me. I wonder if that is because I am in Australia?

I find the slider(s) very cumbersome to use.  A landscape mode would probably help.It’s really difficult to turn volume up/down just a little with the slider.Maybe add an alternate method, something like a number  with up/down controls, so could change volume in small increments.  Either an addition to current UI or maybe an option to use slider or other mechanism.  It would also be helpful to see the current volume level, so I can set it accordingly depending on what I’m listening to. 

All of my music is stored on a NAS.  Format is wav file.  Ripped using third party software or WMP.  I have a number of Playlists I’ve created using WMP.   When I open Sonos it sees all of my music under ‘Music Library’ but none of my playlists.  What can i do to make my playlists available?

Fairly new to Sonos, and just discovered that my family members must log in with my Sonos account in order to use our home system. Kinda reeling from the discovery. Means:I have to share my Sonos password with each family member who wants to use the system. Each personal Spotify and other service account gets listed in Sonos for everyone. … (more problems and inconveniences I can't come up with right now)I guess my main question is: REALLY, SONOS?Who else has run into this? What are workarounds? Who wants to cheer and vote for the feature request Support is logging for me to make multiple Sonos accounts possible on the same system?Edited to add: And it gets worse. To mitigate the impact of this issue, I've renamed my own Spotify service in the app to my own name. But in the music library, the service is still listed as 'Spotify’. So it's not even possible to visually distinguish our Spotify accounts.

Hey there  I’m having a symfonisk and a Sonos amp gen2.I’m really surprised how accurate the sound synchronization is working even in my home network. At least no hearable delay with human ears. Can someone tell me how accurate it is? I’m working sometimes with Dante in live-sound applications and they are guaranteeing below 1us time synchronization but it really needs dedicated switching hardware with qos settings because of PTP time syncing. Sonos doesn’t seem to make use of all that. did someone do some measurements ? 

I've assigned my Beam 2 to the room “Living room”. Now I've gotten myself a Port, which is also in the living room. But I can only assign it to “Living room 2", and that results in two separate rooms. I can still group them of course, but it doesn't make sense to me that I cannot assign multiple devices to the same room. It's the same with all devices: if I wanted to move one of our Sonos Ones to the living, it would be assigned to "Living room 3” now. Is this the expected behavior, and if so, what's the logic behind it?

Would Using ROON for Streaming Apple Lossess to Sonos allow for the mitigation of the lack of HiRes being processed on the Sonos systems?

Hi,Sonos controller on Android will not show the album title when playing?It only shows The artist name twice? See picture below:  This only happens when i play from my NAS disk, not from Spotify?And it also works on my windows desktopAnd it just happens here, was working fine earlier.The problem is on my OnePlus 7T Pro with Android 11 Sonos OS: S2Sonos app version: 13.4.1 Appreciate any help regarding this issue!! Edit: After a bit more research, I see that this only applies to FLAC files? 

For those of you who have evaluated various music services with Sonos, what are your recommendations?  I’m currently considering Apple Music, Qobuz, Deezer and Amazon.  My priorities are music quality (High Resolution), integration with Sonos as I plan on streaming via the Sonos app and lastly cost.  FWIW, I’ll be using a pair of One SLs configured as a stereo pair on my office desk. I’d be interested to hear your thoughts after evaluating some of these services with Sonos. Thanks. 

There’s something I don’t know I believe. Would someone answer me if they know? Using iOS 15.2 Had Sonos for years - no issues generally.Signed up for Spotify, haven’t used them since maybe 2008 before Sonos. SO, I keep Hardware Volume Control toggle off- it is greyed out, not black. I don’t like having to constantly to adjust volume between phone alerts and music.All works fine with all other services on Sonos- Pandora, Apple, Sonos etc. However when I play music from Spotify service, even though my Hardware Vol control is set to off, adjusting the volume using hardware buttons on the side of the phone changes the volume!Even though in the Sonos S1 app it is turned off. If I end the Spotify, and switch to Apple for example, all is well. Buttons do not change volume settings of music. What is up with Spotify- how does it hijack SONOS settings like that??  

my Windows 10 controller say “cannot connect to your  system” then I click on from the pull down menu to “connect to an existing system”  after about 2 minutes of circling, it says that “I am now connected to your system”  with a check mark.  When I click on “done”, it just goes back to the “cannot connect to you system page”  without showing the main screen. My system works fine from my android devices.  

Was just totally enjoying the chill of smooth jazz and an obnoxious holiday song came on.  When I tried to forward past I was notified that I had to sign up for Sonos HD.  So that's the choice, horrible holiday music long after the holidays are over?  No thanks 

So, WD have been sending emails saying support is ending for their MyCloud for the past few month with this line in it: After April 15, 2022, your device will no longer receive remote access, security updates, or technical support.I’m guessing that remote access means that I won’t be able to access my music libraries stored on it via my Sonos system? If it helps, both my WD and Sonos devices are connected to the same router. Any ideas? WD said they would be sending a discount voucher this month, but the devices on offer come with way more storage than I need and also way more than I want to spend on a new device that I don’t really need to buy as the current one was working fine. I swear manufactures do this just to get more revenue for themselves.  

I have 3 Play 5s (gen 2), a Sonos One and a Connect. Everything worked fine. I decided to add 2 SLs to a couple of other rooms, fill out the sound in my house. What an idiot. I’ve tried 2 PCs, 2 different phones, keep getting bounced between S1 and S2. Managed to add one of the SLs to a now new network but now nothing works. PC doesn’t see the new system, phone seems to find the system but doesn’t play. Didn’t even take the second SL out of the box, figured I’d get the system working first before I tried to add it. (Yes, I know the Connect is not compatible. No way to remove it from the app.) Try to open S2 on my primary phone, tells me to open S1 Controller. Do that and it tells me to update my system. I finally got something to play using my spare phone but not my desktop PC and not my main phone. iPhone 12 Pro. No access to my library or saved music sources. Windows 10: “Sonos system not found.” Of course, no one in tech support is available. Who would need help with a music system

Is there ever going to be decent Sonos applications on macOS and iOS ?Take a search - i put in the the name of an artist, click the artist then it just shows me a long list of random crap. Why cannot it be show as separate areas for Songs, albums etc as the search for any other streaming service does ?Getting to a specific playlist in Apple Music takes 4 clicks of the mouse !There is no view to show the bitrate that the stream is playing at.I love the sound from my Sonos Amp, but wondering if it’s time to start moving onto something else.Anyone know of any alternatives ? 

Hi there,It would be great if there was a way in the SONOS app (for iPhone) to output announcements via certain S2 speakers without changing the saved playlists. The speakers should then continue to play your program if possible or be off again without losing their playlist.That would be super practical, for example, to be able to call for breakfast, lunch, ... .

Hi, I would like to request a widget option to be added to the Sonos App, I think there was a thread created about 6 months ago asking on for ios 14 but nothing materialised and the thread got closed.I think it would be a great addition to the sonos app to be able to see whats playing, sound format etc without having to go into the app.

When doing a search for a song, album or artist the sonos app only searches Apple Music: My library and will not search the rest of the Apple Music catalog

I subscribed to YouTube Premium so I can listen to my favourite YouTube music on Sonos. However, I am unable to find YouTube Live Streams on Sonos. My favourite DJs often stream live and I want to play those on my Sonos speakers.How can I do this please?

I submitted an Idea in the Spotify forums to add Podcasts to their Sonos integration. If you're interested in the same, please upvote: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Idea-Submissions/Mobile-Partnership-Add-Podcasts-on-Sonos-app/idi-p/5327335
