Can anyone recommend a reliable third-party app or integration that allows me to create custom playlists and control my Sonos speakers more effectively?

My Sonos Ray has lost contact with the Sonos app. I have tried every obvious means of re-establishing contact. My efforts to reset the system have also failed. I’m using an iPad updated to IOS 17.01 Can anyone suggest what’s wrong and how to put it right.

Hey, everybody. I have an Arc and two Era 100. The question is how best to position them in the room. It is possible to put them as in the picture. But I'm not sure if it is optimal to put Era100 on the sides of the head? Thanks

Bonjour à tous,j’ai une Beam 2 sur une TV LG Oled C1.Tout fonctionne parfaitement, sauf à un détail près, lorsque je dis : “Alexa, Bonne nuit” mes lumières s’éteignent, les volets se baissent et la télé s’éteint. OK MAIS, si je reviens et j’allume le salon par exemple et si je dis “Alexa, Bonne nuit” de nouveau pour éteindre les lumières, la TV se rallume.J’avoue je suis à court d’idées… par avance merci pour votre aide.

Hi. Been using Alexa to “play music” on Sonos beam (connected to two Ones and a sub) using my Apple Music subscription   worked fine for years but now no matter what I ask it only ever plays one song and stops  tried asking Alexa to play Amazon music  same issue I’ve disconnected all apps  rebooted  signed in and out etc  but nothing works one song is all I get  Very annoying and the dog doesn’t get his chill music playlist while we are out   any ideas?  

I have a bunch of playlists which combine mp3s and amazon music songs. The mp3s were stored on my PC, and are referenced using the windows pc name, however that computer is now dead and I don't intend to replace it. I want to move the songs locally, and bulk update the location of the mp3s in the playlists so that the playlist remains in tact, but Sonos can now find the songs. I know I can reimport the songs from a local folder, but assume that my playlists will remain broken if I do that and I want to avoid having to manually recreate them.

Long time Sonos user. I have a one-bedroom apartment with a Playbar, Sonos One (gen 1), Play:3 and Roam. A nice ASUS new’ish router. Great wifi and internet. For a while now, anytime I include the Play:3 in the group (or only play to the Play:3), the system lags a lot. Examples:When I re-open a controller after a few minutes of not using it, it takes 30-60 seconds to show what’s playing.  Whenever I hit pause/next or anything else, it takes a few seconds to do it, and 50% of the time throws an error message.  For about 25% of the songs, the first ~20 seconds show a playing but no sound comes out.On the contrary, whenever I do NOT include the Play:3, everything works beautifully and is super snappy. Do you think my Play:3 has just reached the end of its useful life? Or is there something else I can do to troubleshoot? I’ve tried calling Sonos support multiple times but didn’t make any progress on it. 

Hi,We have a turntable connected to a Five and noticed that we only get the left channel and no right channel. Using Spotify is fine and is complete stereo but Line-in just doesn't. I followed the signal, troubleshooting with different cables and the turntable works fine, cables are fine. I tried connecting my phone aux to it and got the same results. Even sending the signal via the Five to a stereo pair Sonos:1s has the same result: no right channel.Hopefully someone can help me with this.

Hi everyone,I am a college student trying to cobble together the best home system I can with Used sonos’s. I have 2 Play ones and recently purchased a Connect.The goal: Have TV output come out of a 3rd party speaker and the 2 sonos Ones that are mounted in the rear of the room. My TV has a optical cable for audio output. I have bought a converter from Optical (out of the TV) into RCA to go into the Sonos Connect. And RCA to Analog into the 3rd party speaker. So far I cannot find a way to make it workFirstly, I wanted to make sure that this set up will work as expected. Secondly I would love advice on how to make this work or what I might be doing wrong.Thanks!​​​​​​​ 

I must connect my ERA 100 every time when I open tv!! Only ARC is auto connected.is there any solution to adjust era 100 volume with tv remote ?

I recently change my Bell Fibe modem for the Giga model. I have opened only a 2,4GHz channel but still loose almost every day the wifi connection in the Sonos app.

I have several Sonos products in the house.  I have wired 2 Amps...1 connected to 4 Sonance speakers inside and 1 connected to 4 Sonance speakers outside.  I have 3 other wired sound bars...2 Beams and 1 Arc.Only the Amps and each associated room appear on my Sonos app.  I was able to add the 3 soundbars, but they immediately “disappeared” from the app.  I’m not so worried with the soundbars being visible on the app...I only use them for use with the TV.  Although, I bought a Gen 3 Sub to pair with my Arc for the beginning of a surround sound in one room.  The app recognizes the Sub isn’t paired to anything, but the only option is to connect it to one of the 2 Amps, which I don’t want to do.Everything is wired, except the Sub.Since the Arc doesn’t appear on the app, I can’t connect it to the Sub.  Is this only an issue because the Arc isn’t available on the app?  Or is this a different issue?Update:  I read some other threads about the disappearing rooms.  So, I rebooted my App, and th

Music stops mid song and a new song starts and stops mid song and a new song starts. This started a few days ago, it has never happen with Sonos 2 but does happen often with Sonos 1. How do i fix it?

I have several Sonos speakers. Due to my house being small but having ridiculously thick walls I have to use a TP link extender. My set up is as follows:- Speaker 1 to my Plusnet router via ethernet- Speaker 2 attached to the TPLink by ethernet- speaker 3 connected to TP Link by Wifi- Speaker 4 connected to Plusnet via Wifi I have some issues when switching from the TP Link wifi to the Plusnet wifi and sometimes I lose a device. Should I remove all ethernet connections or just keep one speaker attached to the Plusnet router?I have set the TP Link to be the same name and password as the Plusnet wifi but I still seem to have to switch from one to the other.

I have an Alexa Show 5 in my kitchen and a Sonos Beam in my bedroom.  Several times, although not every time, when I say to the Alexa, “Play WFCR”.  It will play it on the Sonos Beam in my bedroom. I do not want it to do that unless I specifically tell it to do that.  (For example, I want to listen in the kitchen while my wife is still asleep.)BTW, the Alexa in the kitchen will respond “Playing WFCR on Sonos Bedroom.”  So, I know it is the guilty party here.I do not have any groups. The rooms are not the same.How can I prevent this from happening?

J’ai bien réussi à ajouter le  service IDAGIO dans l’app SONOS, mais voilà les menu sont en Anglais. Quand j’ai installé l’app IDAGIO dans mon Android  les menus sont en français .Est il possible d’avoir le menu du service IDAGIO dans SONOS mais en Français. Google Translate:I managed to add the IDAGIO service to the SONOS app, but the menus are in English. When I installed the IDAGIO app on my Android the menus are in French.

My Living Room setup is pretty simple. I have a Playbar, Sub and two Play 1’s. When I set up the system I added first the Playbar, then the Sub and then each Play 1. I assigned the Playbar and Sub to Living Room no problem. When I added the Play 1’s they were assigned to Living Room 2. They are paired. I realize I can create a group to combine them and have all 4 speakers work but is there a way to “drag” the speakers so they’re in only one Living Room? My OCD wants everything nice and neat. One Kitchen, one Dining Room, and just one Living Room. Thanks!

When I connect to the app everything seems ok I can see my system , however when I play music it only allows me to play the last song I played and if I try to play anything from Amazon music it is unable to add to the que and there is an error code 1001 , if you are playing a song the only one I can if you turn the volume up or down on the app the slider works but the volume on the song stays the same , then after 10 seconds the volume changes on its own there seems to be a lag , I’m on fibre broadband any help I’ve updated my system to the latest software and I did a reboot . 

This topic is older and might not have the most up to date information. Please click here to see a list of more topics around the same subject. Hi there!I work at a retail store and we have two Sonos speakers, one in our store and one in our warehouse. We have constant issues with our Sonos speakers. When we come in in the morning, one in three times the app (installed on the work computers) cannot connect to the speaker. When we do manage to reset the speaker and reconnect, often the queue will skip over songs or play the first twenty or so seconds of a song then skip over. Sometimes the app will not be able to connect to Spotify alltogether.Could all of these issues be due to a wireless internet range/strength issue? I suspect it may be due to our router being at the back of the warehouse and our till computers and speaker being at the front of the store. However, when I check our internet connection it says it is strong. Could it be the internet speed then? Just ran a speed test and

My question During set up I put the arc as living room.The video says to assign the pair of Era 100 to a different room?I dont assign them with the living room?So do I assign them to the kitchen?Thanks Moderator edit: changed Ethos to Era

I have Beam + Sub + 2 x ERAs (set up as a surround system)I also purchased a line-in adapter to attach a turntable to the system via one of the ERA 100s. (I have two as a back pair to act as surrounds.)I could not then in Music (settings) see the line-in as a music source. So, playing around with the settings I unbonded the ERA 100s and then the music from the turntable came out of the line-in speaker (rear left). Checking the S2 app I then was able to see line-in in Music. However, as I said no music from the other ERA 100.I then proceeded to set up the two ERA 100s as a stereo pair, but confusingly once completed the music came out of the Beam and not out of the ERA 100s.So, I am very confused. I just need to understand if I am doing something wrong. So:Do I always have to unbond the ERA 100s to get music to play from one ERA 100 only? Is there a way to get the line-in ERA 100 to pair with the 2nd ERA 100 to create a stereo pair to play music? Is there a solution to get the turntable
