tunein endless loop of commercials

TuneIn just plays endless loops of commercials and never gets to the actual station anymore.

I don’t mind a few ads, but an endless loop?!

it happens on almost every station I try.

I should also say that this only happens on Sonos.

it works great in my car and phone.

any ideas?

Hi @beynym

My colleague (also in NL) got the same results as yourself - 1 search result, but it only plays ads. I assume the station just isn’t available to me in the UK via TuneIn.

We’ll let TuneIn know about the issue - once they fix it, Sonos Radio will get the updated URL list within a week. In the meantime, you can use myTuner as mentioned, or add this URL http://broadcast.infomaniak.ch/jazzblues-high.mp3 by following the instructions below:

Using the Sonos App for iOS or Android:

From the Browse tab, select TuneIn.
Tap My Radio Stations.
Tap the three dots in the top right and tap Add New Radio Station.
Enter the Streaming URL and Station Name and tap OK.
The station will be listed and available in the My Radio Stations section under TuneIn.

Using the Sonos App for Mac or PC:

Select Manage and Add Radio Station.
Paste in the streaming URL of the station you wish to add, and type in the name of the station.
From the Sonos music menu, navigate to TuneIn > My Radio Stations where the newly added station will be listed.

On a Mac, the “Manage” menu can be found in the toolbar in the top left corner of the screen. On a PC, the “Manage” menu is found at the top left of the Sonos application.

Doing this will bypass TuneIn/Sonos Radio completely.

Thanks a lot for your tenacity and help in solving this matter. In the meantime I've added myTuner Radio to Sonos (per your advice) and that allowed me to listen to Jazz Radio Blues, as I was used to do before.
