How to play you tube music videos on sonos speakers (play1)

There's not an easy way, since Sonos speakers aren't designed to be computer (push to) type speakers. There appear to be some 3rd party applications in various online stores that purport to do that. I've not used any of them, as if I'm going to watch YouTube, a rare event, I would push it from my iPad to my Apple TV and let my Playbar handle it, without the issues of the slight delay if you were to use a line-in on a Connect or Play:5.

I have a smart TV for Youtube to my PlayBar

You can also use;

SonosTube (Google it)

Thank you for your info and advice.

I have had Sonos since 2014 and never had a problem. I have a Playbar, Sub, 2xPlay1's, all in the living room as a surround system connected to a Boost hard wired to the router. My complex is installing a community cable and wifi service thru Charter/Spectrum this summer and it's a great deal. Question: am I still going to be able to connect as I have thru my Boost or am I going to have to use some other method (like shelling out for a Connect)?

As long as your Boost is wired to some router, be it yours, or the complex's, you'll be fine. Essentially, you're running on SonosNet, a parallel wifi mesh system Sonos developed which is generated by the Boost, and supported by all of your speakers.

Just be sure your controller is connected to the same wifi signal as the boost, so that they can see each other.

Thanks, that makes me feel better. I'll let you know, or call for help, when the change over happens.

Theres a pretty good community of people here who like to help out where they can. Varying levels of skills (mine is lower than others), but if you post a question with enough details, it's pretty darn likely you'll get a reasoned response. Good luck!

What a waste of money, have had no success in Alexa have followed all instructions dies not connect to my Sonos

Perhaps, since you're having trouble, you might want to call in to their customer service line, and get assistance?
