If I connect my Sonos to YouTube Music, I'm able to access all my playlists etc on YTM no problem. And play my songs sound wise. HOWEVER, why can't I play my videos anymore? Is it something I'm doing wrong, or it that Sonos & YTM just aren't on the same exact terms with one another? I DON'T have a smart TV, so I either view my music videos by my Google Pixel 3a, my ASUS Vivo Flipbook or by casting to my aged TV. It makes no sense that I can use any regular bluetooth speaker with these devices and play & view my YouTube music videos. Yet, I'm completely unable to do so with my Sonos, and that totally irritates me. HELP this extremely computer-uneducated music & dance lover!
Is anyone else seeing this? If I try to search for a station, the app crashes and exits.My system is all running on:Sonos OS: S2Version: 13.1.1 (build 63289260)
When I pick an album (Amazon music that I own), one of my Albums (linked to iTunes library), Spotify, or even Spotify’s “Made for Me” Daily Mix lists … Sonos only plays the first item over and over, never going to next. This is even though I pick “Play Now”. has been going on for a few weeks (or longer?). The only reliable music source I now have is Tune-in to a radio station, sadly.
For some reasons the Local radio are in the wrong city. It is et for Ottawa and I live in Montreal. How can I change that? Gerard
I’ve pretty much uploaded all of my music to my WDPR2100 NAS. Well at least on the tail end. It’s taking me over a week to figure it out and to copy to NAS. So I’m trying to figure out how to use my NAS to play music on Sonos now. I’m not having much luck. I’ve searched here and found a few old post. One post took me to this...https://support.sonos.com/s/article/78?language=en_US. I followed the directions on my Windows laptop and and my iPhone. Took me a few try’s on the iPhone to get to the Next button. I typed in \\y:mycloudpr2100\music and Next highlighted finally. But when I hit Next I get the message The computer y:mycloudpr2100 cannot be found. I tried my user name and password and still same message. Do I need to configure this on my Windows laptop first before my iPhone? What am I missing here?
Are there any plans for more in depth EQ settings / True Play for the Sonos Amp powering non Sonos speakers?I love my Sonos Amp but I'm very limited with it connected to a pair of Fyne Audio F501 floor standing speakers. Using Roon I can use a Parametric Equalizer which makes a huge difference to the overall sound coming out my speakers. Unfortunately though when I am using the S2 app I lose this capability.
Tried a variety of different upnp servers - nothing displays under music browse (S2). Does this feature actually work?
We all know of the 65k limit of MP3’s that Sonos can handle.We also might now of Spotify playing the same songs over and over again for your daily mix…I now have a raspberry pi and mounted my music collectionI just had a brainf*t that maybe I could run a docker with icecast and dark ice: https://github.com/jwater7/docker-darkice And generate ‘radio stations’ to play may music. I searched only a little but could not find anything related quicklypre-requisite: I have my music organzied in genre/artist/albumI am playing around with nodejs and have build an interface to interact with the collection (the main idea was to move music out of my collection to reach the Sonos limit.I am thinking that it would be nice tocreate playlists on a scheduled basis (nightly) to have a fresh playlist in the morning keep track of tracks that have been played add albums to custom playlists (for today I want to listen to these albums) create ‘radiostations’ for different genres of music (combine bluegrass, c
As I finish my 30 day free subscription, wanted to jot down my quick thoughts on Sonos HD Radio and why I won’t be renewing (for now).The biggest reason is cost/value. $7.99 is a lot for what you are getting (and not getting). To be honest if they would have offered an annual subscription for $59.99 I probably would have bought but not for almost $100. If I were to give it a grade: Overall B-; Value D+; Features B-; Selections B+; Ease of Use A.My wife and I have listened to it all month (not using any other music services) to give it a fair shake. My kids use Apple Music exclusively so for them it doesn’t matter. Probably a half dozen stations we regularly listened to-Mellow Morning (every morning), Cruise Control, Mainstream, Pure Unplugged, Radio a Gogo, Rock Pantheon, Rock Road Trip, Alternative Energy; used Pink Noise/Rain every night to go to sleep; even the Holidaze to set up the tree and decorations. Sampled about a dozen others to try them out. Great stations, very different m
Hello, Is it possible to add a music service before connecting to a Sonos product?I am trying to test the connection to Apple Music before connecting to a product owned by a venue that will be playing my music over a Sonos product. Which means that I am unable to connect to the product now. Right now, ‘Add Services & Voice’ is greyed out in the iOS Sonos app. Thanks!
Hi. I’ve discovered BBC R1 Dance recently whilst out on the bike, it’s just the ticket for some background tunes at 9pm cruising round some nice quiet summery lanes.Just asked my Sonos One to chuck it on at home via Alexa, and it couldn’t find it.I searched manually in the app, and sure enough, it isn’t there.TuneIn has every single BBC Station other than R1 dance it seems.Anyone got any ideas?I’ve read that you can AirPlay some BBC stuff to a Sonos, but I’m all android so not an option.Seems a weird, and annoying, oversight by someone somewhere.
I have a completely wired ethernet configuration. I have a play 3, ZP80, and playbar all hardwired through ethernet and a computer also wired using the desktop app to control them. I have the wireless radios all disabled on the 3 players. My problem is my android phone also hardwired with ethernet will not allow me to see rooms or play music this way. Is there something I’m doing wrong to get the android to work in wired mode? Since the desktop app functions in this manner, I’m lead to believe the android apps can also, but I can’t seen to get it to function. Any help is greatly appreciated! Before you give advice, I’m not interested in using any kind of wireless transmission at all. Yes, I do know this was how Sonos was designed, but I only want everything wired. Thank you!
Why is the software so horrible. I hate our products.
Hi,Is there anysound lag when using Netflix or YouTube on a Mac with a Sonos Roam ?
There is an update 13.1.1 and I’m not sure what it added. However it removed my trueplay turning and is asking me to retrueplay tune.
Why cant i play from any app to sonos like Iphone.? I cant play audio book on sonos. APP name ( Hljóðbókasafn íslands) I only get to play audio files on my phone.
Hi, How much is Spotify premium?
Can someone direct me to a good overview of the S2 app?
Feature Request: while in the EQ settings, ie bass, treble, sub audio…. I think it would be a nice feature to have the ability to press on the + and - buttons at the far ends of the settings rather than “eyeball” those settings via “press and slide”. You can do it with the main volume settings - albeit by tapping along on the volume line, but not using the actual plus or minus “buttons”. I wish those + and - buttons were actual buttons, across the app! It’s simply counter intuitive as it is now.
Why can’t I go backwards using Flow in Deezer in the Sonos Environment (App). If the function is available on Deezer why is not availble in the Sonos app? Can we get this fixed?
We have had the poor experience (many times) of grouping a room only to blast our ears out. Our Living Room has Bar/Sub/One/One and we connect it through our entertainment center. There are various volume controls at play and sometimes the Sonos Volume in the Living Room is left fairly high. The next morning… we are playing music through a One in a different room and we decide to group the Living Room… with volume still high, music is Very loud and possibly damaging to a person sitting in there. Questions: Are there any settings that would reset volume to something like 10% on any newly grouped room? Or even any settings that would allow volume limits based on Input? Our entertainment center is generally quiet, our turntable (via Sonos Port) is really quiet, Music is REALLY LOUD. I have a sizable investment in Sonos speakers but I am finding it difficult to manage all the various volume levels across my 7 rooms. It seems unreasonable that a user would need to visit every room an
I found a new way to control my Sonos using buttons over WiFi and NOT through Iphone, Andrioid, or Bluetooth. Fairly new, the Leviton Four (4) Button Wifi controller #DW4BC fits in a regular wall switch box and wires to 110v.. Once configured, up to four switches can control Sonos via IFTTT, which is referred to as If This Then That. Available at IFTTT.com. Before diving in, I have already heard this solution is costly and convoluted to some. Yes I know there are other buttons, but this works well for my building, and empowers people without Sonos accounts to listen or stop Sonos without asking me to control the music…. like when a phone rings. It solves my original problem where speakers are not easily accessible so the buttons are useless. And I won’t allow Siri or Alexa in this building. No longer do people bug me to control the music. They do it now with buttons and not running App software logged into MY Sonos account. My BUTTON solution works like this…Add a Leviton DW4BC wir
Hi, Apple Music Activity playlists are no longer showing within the new Sonos S2 controller app. All playlists are available to see within the Apple Music app. I have contacted Apple and they have stated this is a Sonos issue. I have submitted diagnostics - 1090078363. This has never been an issue before - always worked fine before the S2 controller update,
A couple of questions before I begin my setup for my WD My Cloud NAS.This will be my first time using NAS. First, I’m replacing my 12 year old Mac with a Windows Lenovo laptop. Yes I guess it would be a downgrade but I’m shifting into retirement mode in the next 2 years. I’m not on the Mac as much these days. Plus I can’t justify the cost $$$ of another Mac when I’m only on it when I’m downloading music and photos. And now with a NAS coming. I am going to miss it. Anyway, the laptop will be here on Monday. My NAS (without the disk drives) is scheduled to arrive today. I purchased the NAS diskless. I just purchased 2 4TB drives this morning so I’m assuming they will be here by Monday. So when my NAS arrives today can I set it up without the drives? Or will I have to wait for them to arrive before I can set it up? If I am able to do the setup on the NAS without the drives should I do setup with my very old and very very slow Mac (and 2 external drives)? Or should I wait for my new Window
I would love to do some more advanced settings Sonos Amp, for example "more EQ settings".This is more a wish for extended functionality then a question. / Henrik
