Hello everybody !I come from France, so I'm sorry if I do some mistakes with my english^^I have a playbar (+ 2 play 1 + sub) connected on my LG TV (OLED GX) and I use the spotify app on this TV to listen music (I also use my phone with WiFi, but it is very pleasant to have a big screen)But when the sound come from a TV, the Playbar set the sound in 5.1 as for a movie, and it is very worse than WiFi for music.Does anyone have a solution to have music setting on my playbar when I use Spotify on my TV ?The only solution I've found is using spotify on my PC connected on my TV.… Thank you everybody :)Rémi
With the introduction of Dolby Atmos to Apple Music, will the Sonos app begin supporting Dolby Atmos and Lossless audio?
Hi there, I used to be able to control Sonos on 5ghz, but now it seems impossible.I tried to toubleshoot myself and read other questions here, but none solved the issue.Can you help me please?This is my diagnostic #781152974.Thanx in advance.
Hello! Trying to connect to Spotify on my Sonos app, but the service simply doesn’t show up on the list of music services. There’s no errors, etc; out of the services offered to connect to, Spotify isn’t one of them.I’m currently in South Korea, where Spotify launched its services fairly recently (as of this year or so?); perhaps that may have something to do with it?If this question has been answered already, apologies; the problems I have been having are little different than the previous postings that I’ve found and did not seem to address the issue.
Hi,Testing Amazon HD vs Spotify.On the Amazon app when using Airplay, tapping the Ultra HD logo of a song confirms that it is playing 24-bit / 44.1 khz. Still on the Amazon music app, when selecting my room (same Sonos speakers), the app shows that it cannot confirm the bit-rate. My question is: is it only the info that is not available thru Sonos or is there an audio quality advantage to use Airplay?Thanks Nicolas
I have a Sonos Play:1 that I am trying to connect to.It was previously connected via a Sonos Bridge but I understand that isn’t needed anymore. I have moved to another house with a new wifi network. I installed the Sonos S2 app on my phone (iOS) and my Windows laptop.But on neither apps can I find the Play:1 via Wifi or connected to the router.I also don’t have access to the System option in the iOS app and the Windows app just redirects me to the website which tells me to install the iOS app.So I’m kind of stuck. Is there somebody that can help me with this?
I am trying to login to the app from my iPhone but its unable to recognise the login details (they are 100% correct) I can login to Sonos fine if I use a web browser any ideas thanks
Since I’ve tried customer service with both Sonos and Sophos, I thought I’d put this out there for any suggestions/wisdom.Macbook Pro, running 10.13OS, Sonos 1 Desktop App and Sophos Home Premium 10.0.4 (and have had the same setup for some time with no issues).While the Sonos desktop app will show connection to the system when checking “connect to existing Sonos system”, it never gets past the main screen error message “Sorry, we can’t connect to Sonos”. Mobile apps work fine (all on the same wi-fi network).Turning off Sophos does not change anything, but uninstalling it brings Sonos back (and reinstalling permits it for a day, then the issue returns).Obviously, these two aren’t playing nicely together - again, I’ve been trying to get help on both ends. Any thoughts appreciated.
Does anyone have any idea why Sonos won’t update SMB? It is literally 15 years out of date. If you want to use local media files, are there any other options?
Hi Sonos -I am increasingly frustrated by differences between the desktop app and the phone one. I hugely prefer to use the desktop app - largely S1 because, as an early adopter I have at least ten Sonos products to control. It’s also an age/vision/dexterity thing. I have a large music library, about 35k tracks, and navigate using the Folders tab. BUT, it’s not available in the phone app to navigate neither On This Device nor the Music Library. Please see if it’s possible to make this aspect of the phone app match the desktop app.Thanks,Ian.PS It is of course possible that I am missing something. If so, please show me how.
Alarm can not be snoozed, it just starts playing music. It starts playing at the right time, but when I check my phone there is no option to snooze or anything, it looks like it's just playing music as normal. This problem has been since the last update.
I have a Note 10+ running on Android 11. I have recently noticed that when I play content from my Sonos app, that the controls do not appear when I view my notification panel on my phone I have uninstalled and reinstalled Sonos. I have also restarted my phone. Still having this issue. I have notifications enabled as well.
Why must i be forced to use an APPLE iphone to set up room surround sound or dolby atmos.Does Apple own sonos??It would have been nice to see a warning on the Costco site. Also if you have an android phone you will need at least Android version 8 or better. You don’t find this info until you start trouble shooting on the Sonos site. Very unhappy with the hype about how good this system is
Hello! I wonder if it is possible to play Atmos music by Apple music on Sonos with all Atmos features? If yes, how to made that?
I just received the Roam and am starting to use it. When I’m on wifi, it works great. The minute I go off wifi onto 5G, the app is completely useless. The music that I’m listening to still plays, but I can’t do anything else via the Sonos App. This seems like a pretty big limitation considering that most people will probably be using the speaker on the go (beach, boat, park, etc). So when you’re away, it’s really just another portable speaker. I’m assuming most people will start to discover this and wonder why, as Sonos didn't really mention that this would happen.
Okay, the title is quite a handful, but I couldn’t come up with a simpler one (suggestions welcome) so bear with me.This is a summary of what I learnt to fix my problem based on these other topics which are quite a mess to read through:and many more...In this post I hope to help out all the people that were using an iTunes network library, either from a computer or on a server to play music on their sonos systems. Specifically I’ll focus on the usability, since I was used to just copying their iTunes folder on to my NAS and have it work perfectly as a NAS music Library with Sonos and how to get it to work with the new updated Music App, that replaced iTunes. This might also be helpful for people with playlist issues or general issues on getting their new OSX Music Library to work with Sonos.General Information: Since Apple decided to replace iTunes with Music, it no longer creates an XML file for the library. This is an issue because it’s exactly that file that we need to have your NAS
IOS has Sonopad... Android has.... nothing. Am I alone in finding the S2 app clunky and outdated - it works but that's about all that's going for it. I especially hate the colour-themed playing screen which can easily provide a sickly yellow background depending on the album art or station logo.
Hello Everyone!To get to the point from the title. Sonos Trueplay for a 5.1 surround can only be tuned using an IOS device. As a programmer I can understand because of the hardware differences between different Android phones.I own a Sonos move, so why can't the built in Mics for that unit tune my Tv room surround? The Move would just simply be used as a external Mic to pick up sounds around the room( might be a little too heavy moving the speaker up and down haha) or would Sonos be able to create a Microphone as a accessory purchase.Don
Klopt het een SONOS MOVE eigenlijk enkel vlot communiceert met een i-phone? Ik erger mij te pletter aan de gebrekkige samenwerking van mijn SONOS en mijn Fairphone. Is it right you should have an i-phone to enjoy SONOS MOVE? My Fairphone (the only smartphone I want to use) doesn’t agree with SONOS. Why didn’t anybody tell me that before?
I can’t find anywhere this has been requested before, which I find surprising. I think there should be the ability to select multiple rooms when configuring an alarm. Yes I know you can select to include grouped rooms. But this relies on someone checking that rooms are grouped correctly before going to bed. We have tried and failed to do this consistently in a busy household - it’s not a satisfactory solution. The alarm should have the ability to group rooms to achieve the desired outcome. We have tried setting the same alarm up in multiple rooms, but this produces an impossibly pronounced echo effect!!
Sonos first came to market at the perfect time, they were not the first, or possibly the best at the time, but they brought desirable products to the market at a time when people were willing to spend good sums of money for reliable, high quality products. In particular they were the best solution for people who wanted to stream their existing digital audio collection at the best quality, Sonos devices supported network streams of uncompressed of audio and also supported uncompressed FLAC files for even higher quality. This is why I and so many other customers invested thousands in Sonos hardware.But times move on….Over the years Sonos has failed to innovate in their primary arena of products which used to be the market leader in the highest quality audio and which justified their high price tag and in doing so have ditched their cash cow users. Instead they have put all their resources into online streaming services (sacrificing quality and alienating their core userbase), creating ni
I recently started a free trial of Apple Music. I have an iTunes library of about 32,500 tracks which are currently being uploaded to the Apple Music cloud.I have downloaded a couple of albums from Apple Music which appear in my iTunes library and in the Apple Music library, but, do not appear in the main Sonos library.Is this usual?
Hello, I have a strange situation : on my iPad, if I play youtube or youtube music, if I use airplay, I can see my Sonos and stream to it. on my iPad, or Android phone, if I clic on “cast” icon, I see no device connected.That is not cool, as if I use airplay and close youtube app, the sound stop. And Also I can not use my android phone.With Sonos APP it works well, but in sonos app I can not add music to my library and playlist. How can I manage this to work ?Thanks in advance for your help.
