Sonos One and DLNA

Hi,

 

I read a lot about Sonos and DLNA and my question is why is not yet possible to play music from a DLNA server running on a NAS?

The Sonos app show the NAS and let me navigate through folders but when I try to play music says: Unable to add music to queue.

It makes no sense to me. Why should I use the obsolete samba protocol to share folders over my network while the DLNA protocol exists?

Sonos is almost perfect but this is a big disqualification.

My Samsung TV sees and play music from my NAS. Obviously I don’t want to play music on my TV and this is why I bought a Sonos speaker.

 

Regards

Max

I don’t have a Tidal sub, but have been playing Spotty all morning, without issue.  Here are my general and Sonos-specific settings in the plugin:

Used same settings as you... But tracks only play for 5 secs. Then reset.  Grrrr.
