Thanks.  The Boost no longer shows!

Any chance of adding the equaliser panel ?

I made a ticket. Will look into it.

Please take any issues over to the github page. I fear things will get lost over here.

Also, If you run into trouble and the app crashes, ctrl+R will reload the window.

I’m happy to help with reports and testing …. but I’d prefer not tto have to deal with github (just another badly organised website where you need a PhD to figure what goes where, why and when - this Sonos site is bad enough!).  I’ll just roll back to an earlier beta, until it gets fixed at some point.

Cheers.

@castalla Ok, got ya. Well, keep posting them here, that’s better than me not finding out about issues.

 

Out of interest, do you have the same problem with the beta8?

If so, could you do me a favour and check for stack traces in the developer tools?

Finally, you could try to use the Developer Tools→Application→ local storage and remove the entry called “zone” and see if that helps?

Thanks again.  Will try the beta 8 today and report back.

Mixed results … it finds the sonos system intermittently.   Connects every other run (?)

How do I get ‘stack traces’?

Boost not displayed in beta8, but ...

 

Strange characters in playlist display:

 

Also, the main screen shows Line-in.  My devices don’t have this, so is it possible to remove from the menu?

ctrl+shift+i should open the developer tools, alternatively there’s a menu option for that.

There you find a tab called console. Anything red in there is something that failed. If it has an Error in it, you’ll see where the error was generated and what might have lead to it. Looks similar to this.

Excuse me but I got into a lot of trouble for using this forum as a support forum for my Sonos apps, and it was a lot less than this thread. Please take this level of discussion elsewhere.

@controlav Thanks for the heads up. Over to github it is. @castalla Sorry, won’t look at error reports etc here. Maybe also remove the lengthy state dump and stack trace comments as they clutter up the thread?

controlav, that sounds like a good idea, I’ll make new comments, requests and reports to the github project instead of here.

For folks not familiar with github.com it is really easy to use to submit issues or download software.

Unofficial App Download page: Sonos Releases

I think you need a free github account to submit issues or comments there.

Unofficial App Issues page: Sonos Issues

Look for a previous report of your issue and click it or click the New Issue button to start a new one.

Keeping the work over there is a really good idea as it will be less confusing for folks using the Official Sonos Apps and will make it easier for pascalopitz / pascalo to keep track of things.

I have created a simple sonos linux controller. It’s not meant to be player (like unoffical-sonos-controller-for-linux). But it might help you if you just want to skip a song or change the volume. 

open-sonos-controller release

Any suggestions and feature requests are welcome.

Also I only have 3 rooms and only sonos playbar for tv watching, which seems to be discontinued.
Help with testing on the newer hardware would be great.
