"Edit queue" and "Play next" & "Add to End of Queue" for folders in Media Library: STILL NOT WORKING.

Updated today to 80.15.01 Android + the latest update on the SONOS Beam Controller.

I have my Music Library on a DLNA server (Twonky) in my local LAN.

I still encounter queue-related issues:

  • browse to Music Library → Albums: I can, indeed add an entire Album to the currently playing queue
  • browse to Music Library → Folders: I cannot add a folder to the currently playing queue (exactly like in my other post where I reported this)
  • browse to Music Library → Imported Playlists (where I see the .m3u files that I have in my library)
    • go to one playlist, hit play: it works fine
    • go to another playlist, go to context menu, hit Add to End of Queue: I get an error message: “Unable to add to queue”

I stopped here, for now that’s all the free QA work that I’m willing to provide to SONOS.

 

As I previously said, I’ll keep using the SONOS Beam to listen to TuneIn Radio, Spotify Podcasts and personal Music Library. It does it’s job, headache is manageable, especially considering that since it’s a single product, I was sparred of ~99% of the trouble of “some speakers missing from the setup”.

But when I do decide to get something else, it will definitely not be a SONOS product. Never ever again a cent from me for such “products & services”.

It would be nice if there was a ticket number or reference number to allow the Sonos team to track down this thread...

​@Corry P could you make our hope for a solution more urgent and important with the software development team?

or put some kind of poll to the feature page or your newsletter to get an overview how many customers really have an issue with folders not working as before V80?

 

thank you in advance 

best regards

    Hi ​@zero2cool 

    All I can really do is document the topic as a feature request, which has been done.

      There are a lot of things regarding the local library that are still outstanding There has also been no significant feature update end of January.  I suspect the recent redundancies have not helped :(

       

      Is there an updated time time?

      Thank you Corry P for at least getting the issue registered.  In previous life… I had a dev/ops team that reported to me… so I have been puzzled throughout the duration of these issues how the Sonos QA/QC team “approved” the May 2024 release, though perhaps they were not listened to…

      ​@Corry P thanks a lot. Besides the „feature request“ could you also report a bug, also concerning local library.

      i‘m adding an audio book, like lord of the rings or the stand from Stephen king etc. LOTR for example are 70 titles.

      if I click the 3 dots and „replace queue“ the playlist has 39.000 songs in the list, so the Sonos app (latest version on iOS latest version) adds the „album“ almost 600 times to the queue. Without the sleep timer, sound would still play 3 years from now;-)


      so, bottom line, I guess I want to ask the SONOS developers to fix local library after all.

       

      best regards

      Hi ​@zero2cool 

      We are aware of this issue and are investigating. It also affects online services.

      The last I heard, however, it had a surprisingly low count of associated cases - I recommend you get in touch with our technical support team to report this so that the case count is increased and the priority increased as a result.

      I hope this helps.

          Hi ​@PCM_QAM 

          No, but they should be aware of it by description alone.

          Please note, however, that I no longer see this behaviour when adding a playlist from YouTube Music (a positive change since the last time I checked just a couple of days ago), so even if this issue is not entirely resolved, work has definitely already been done on it, and published.

          The bug is still around for local music playlists.
