Recently Added Music List

Just use any music manager to make a playlist. All playlists, both iTunes and .M3U located in the share path are imported by Sonos. Use an .M3U playlist and you wont even have to reindex when you make changes.
might try that, thanks. i'm running everything off a nas separate from my regular itunes library, so it's not a perfect 1:1.

+1 ... me too. Would a list of recent library additions, as well as recently played list for streaming services,
+1 too ^_^ I rely a lot on Google Play Music, and having automatic playlists available on Sonos such as "Most Recently Added", "Most Recently Listened" and "Liked songs" would be excellent.

Bump. The feature I'd most like to see from Sonos, right here. Sonos, you listening?

STILL waiting for this feature. It's not Rocket Science. It won't increase manufacturing costs. Other platforms have had it for years. Why can't we have it for our Sonos systems?

I'd guess that there's two reasons, although I'm not sure about the first. It may be that the Sonos API doesn't support that. But more certainly, it would be up to the third party to implement in, if it does exist already in the Sonos API.

What does a third party have to do with it? Sonos has control over both the API and the primary desktop and mobile device clients/apps, so a third party shouldn't have to be involved at all to add the capability in that context.

If it's not already in there, the Sonos team can extend the API to support it. It seems very unlikely to be the sort of thing that causes backward-compatibility issues.

Coincidentally I changed to Bluesound yesterday. I was watching this topic for months now. I was a happy Sonos Connect user for over four years. But the lack of interface updates on the Sonos software made me decide to move to another platform.

I didn't expect this, but the change to Bluesound also improved the sound quality al lot. The DAC of the Node is so much better than the Connect one... Since I use the Connect/Node 80% of the time to feed my Rega Brio (analog) from a NAS with high-res files this seems the case...

So I can recommend switching to Bluesound! 🙂 For 'latest additions' and even more for the DAC quality.

So you come here with your first post to promote a competitor. :8 Good for you!

Sorry, just a lot of frustration 🙂

Because of limited memory Sonos only stores the absolute basic meta info (eg. artist, album, track name and number), and other than artwork, no other tags are fetched on-the-fly. So any kind of smart "recently added" playlist is unlikely to happen (although Sonos could implement something to make a note of recent additions when it scans local library). The various workarounds hinted at in previous posts are probably your best bet.

Just for fun, I built a little script (Powershell) to scan my NAS music folder and create an imported playlist of tracks added to my library in the last 30 days. Putting something like that on a scheduled task is probably as good as you're going to get if you want your Sonos to show you recently added items.
