How to add playlist larger than 100 songs from music library on Android?

I have searched and seen similar topics. Most relate to Amazon Music. I do not have any issues playing a Spotify playlist of more than 100 songs. If I select a playlist in my Music Library, any of the ways to get music into the queue results in 100 songs.

I have tried the workarounds to empty the queue, add one song and then select Play Next for the entire playlist. That does not work. Nor does any of the selections to add or play the playlist in the queue. All result in an error and/or just the first 100 songs being added.

I can scroll to the end of my playlist. The only way to play a song outside of the top 100 is to only add that song to the playlist. If I select any song beyond the top 100, it will play the 100th song.

FWIW, I have my playlists in 2 formats, iTunes and m3u. Both behave the same. I get the same behavior on all devices. I currently only have Android devices, all running the latest available app in the Google Play Store, version 80.17.09…

How can I play larger playlists from my music library?

Hi @PearlMikeJam

We now believe that this issue was resolved with the latest update. Please check your playlists, but also be aware that the update is being released as a phased rollout and you may not get the latest version until Monday next week, at the latest.

I hope this helps.

That does help, thank you. Fixing this rather obvious bug would also help as I am gobsmacked that it got through user testing.

Honestly, it is quite unbelievable that Sonos have been aware of this issue for many, many weeks and yet still are either unable to resolve it or do not see it as being important.

Such poor customer service given the fiasco following the introduction of this version of the app.

@Corry P the latest update does allow for playlists larger than 100 songs from the music library but nothing shows in the queue. The header of the queue shows the number of songs. Below that is just blank. Hoping this can be addressed.

Hi @PearlMikeJam

Sorry to hear of this issue you are having with a playlist loading a blank queue.

I recommend force-closing the app and re-opening it again.

If that has not improved matters for you, I recommend you get in touch with our technical support team who have tools at their disposal that will allow them to give you advice specific to your Sonos system and what it reports.

I hope this helps.
