Android-to-WiFi-Play1 sourcing USB on Netgear SW

I was told I could (using my Android phone) access a USB Music Drive on my Netgear 16Port PoE Sw by connecting an RJ45-to-USB adapter.   Did that.  Can’t figure out how to see/access it from my phone.  All the tips point to using Win10 as the interface.  I need to do it from my phone.  Thanks, Rookie WiFi’er here.

How come the Sonos app doesn't prompt me if I try to add a redundant song to a playlist?

The Apple Music application will tell me that a song already exists in a playlist and ask me if I want to add it anyway. The Sonos application on my iPhone will let you add the same file indefinitely. This shouldn’t be a hard feature to implement. Please add it to the product.

Some Sirius XM channels will play, some say "Unable to Play the Selected Item"?

I noticed about a year ago this was happening for multiple people, but the topic was closed.  So -- it’s still happening for me.  I reauthorize SiriusXM and it seems to work for a day or two, but then fails again.  It’s not always the same channels either.   Any update on this?

New releases not showing for You Tube Music

Hi. I use You Tube Music on Sonos and like scrolling through the 25 or 30 new albums on “New Releases” but for some reason about a week when I go to “New Releases” on Sonos it only shows one or two new albums. Does anyone know if this is a Sonos problem or a You Tube Music problem?  And more importantly how it can be fixed? I tried re-installing You Tube Music on Sonos but nothing changed. Thanks!

Reklamer i app'en... NEJ TAK

Jeg kan fjerne notifikationer i app’en HELT under min profil, men hvordan fjerner man bare reklamerne? De tekniske notifikationer vil jeg jo gerne modtage… Kan man virkelig ikke differentiere ift. hvad man vil ha’ notifikationer om? Moderator edit:Google Translate-I can remove notifications in the app ENTIRELY under my profile, but how do you just remove the ads? After all, I would like to receive the technical notifications... Can you really not differentiate in relation to what you want notifications about?

Presets don't play right station (android app)

About 20% of the time, when trying to start a music stream from off / not playing, when selecting a preset streaming station or streaming station from “recently played” within the android app, the Sonos will instead play the streaming station that was last playing earlier in the day.  The icon / graphic is for the selected station, but when you listen, it’s not the station displayed or selected, but rather the last one played earlier in the day. I also have an iPad with this app / PC, but rarely use them, so can’t 100% tell if this is android app related or sonos related (irrespective of app OS).   Anyone else have this issue?  Eventually I can select the stream again (via presets) and after 1-2 it will play the intended stream, but since the icon is always the selected one, you have to wait to hear if you’re actually listening to your intended station.  Been happening last few months.The Sonos speakers I am connecting to don’t matter (I have home surround (play bar, sub, 2 play 1 surr

Sonos music indexing - DETAILS (seeking information - I don't have a problem)

There are various idiosyncrasies I’ve noticed with adding music to my Sonos library, but nothing that I haven’t managed to figure out eventually. However, I’m not able to find a detailed “drilldown” on how Sonos music library indexing works. There might be detailed information in here...somewhere...but a search on the topic only yields problems that people have with adding music.If anyone has details to share, I would love a deeper understanding of how things work under the cover.

Escuchar mis canciones.

Compré la Play 5, para escuchar las canciones que a mi me gustan, las que tengo almacenadas en mi móvil. Al principio, no había ningún problema, las escuchaba y disfrutaba del sonido.Ahora no sé lo que ha ocurrido, que sólo puedo escuchar, las emisoras, Spotify, pero en ningún caso las que tengo en la memoria de mi móvil. Quisiera si es posible, encontrar la forma de poder volver a escuchar mis canciones. Hice un esfuerzo para comprar la Play 5, y ahora sólo me quedan las emisoras (que son muchas, pero no me interesan), o suscribirme a una plataforma musical de las reconocidas por Sonos que tampoco me interesan (al menos de manera principal). Gracias.

Apple Music Playlist Repeat - interrupted playback

Recently moved an audio system to run off the sonos port. Have 7 in total. We have a playlist from apple music of around 350 songs (about 22 hours) and the sonos keeps stopping before the playlist ends. The sonos settings are on repeat and shuffle. I am at a loss to get this to keep playing. The goal is to have the music playing 24/7 streaming from the sonos. Checked in the apple music app and cannot find anything to set the list on repeat or change any settings like that. Any suggestions would be helpful.

track list compact display

Please, please give us an option to have a compact display for track list on mobile apps. When I search for sets on soundcloud I can't see the long track names. Its infuriating.And there is so much wasted space on every track list view. Make it an option please. I will happily donate my time and write the code to your standards for Android devices.

Spotify search gives wrong options on PC and Mac controllers

It is correct (i.e. the same as the spotify website) on our phones (and on CR200s). On the Mac S1 controller, it is a random bunch of options like “Listas populares de los 80” and “Discover more from David Bowie”. Different again on PC S1 Controller e.g. “Meer van wat je leuk vindt” and “Vos mix preferes”. Have un and re installed controllers - no change. Grateful any help to resolve. Thanks.
