I am a happy user of an old Sonos Legacy system with the S1 app, an old Connect, a Play:1 and :3 (with proper buttons) and an OneSL because I couldn’t find a proper Play:1 anymore.
Mostly, I've been using the system to listen to my local music library or Tidal, or stream a webradio station via the custom URI “hack” via tunein. I've seen that a lot of people have issues with that with the new app, with the S1 app, it still seemed to work fine.
Until now.
I had been away from home for a couple of weeks and when I came back, the custom radio doesn't work anymore. That is, in Sonos. It works in the TuneIn app, it works on the station’s website, the raw URI works fine from all sorts of streaming players.
I tried to get Sonos to directly play the stream via the API (x-rincon-mp3radio), doesn’t work. Tried other streams - don't work. Normal, ad-infected TuneIn works. All my custom URIs stopped working.
Via the support webinterface (:1400/status) of my Sonos hardware, I found out that a software/firmware update was pushed to them on March 9th. That might be the culprit.
Does anyone else have this problem? Was there even anyone else around with custom radio still working? Is there any hope of a solution? Do I need to spent a lot of money to buy new hardware even though the stuff I have could theoretically easily do the job?
So many questions. Thank you for indulging me.
