firmware update 16.4.2

Hardware update this morning. Some but not all EQ related settings changed as far as I can tell. Nothing for the Ace.

Anybody have ideas what's addressed this time?

The compilation issue still exists for me. Strangely the first compilation looks correct, but all others are still showing up as duplicates.

Me too, rescanned and still the same issue.

On Android, is album art now working for anyone? Because for me it’s still blank. Speakers updated to latest along with app.   Deleted and re-added library but no change.  Indexing is a lot better a part from the oddities already mentioned in previous posts.

Me neither, never has since May... ☹️

Android 80.10.06

Can perform the adding/subtracting on lists by swiping that's been available on iOS for a month etc. But still no saving/naming of new Sonos Playlists...

Sonos Playlists still end at about 'C' in alphabet, so about 70% still not visible. Those that are there appear straight away now however. I note that Sonos Playlists created from Amazon before 80.09.04 don't have header album art - perhaps an indicator that Sonos Playlists/Local library is still in progress? 

No album art for local library (I know it's a http issue only on android that wasn't addressed in first iteration in May) 
Pocket casts dates still not correct.

No indication of HD/Hi-Def/Res when playing from local library on app. 

Updated Windows to 16.4.2, and as it has been since 7th May, is my way of using Sonos in terms of playing local library and editing and creating. The idea of the app being a mobile alternative to that is a long way away.

With regard to multiple entries for collections... Checked tags and although most were OK (and wrong in Sonos), some were not (blank mainly and some with  incorrectly populated Album Artist field). Corrected these tagging anomalies - probably about 30-40% of those albums affected (more than I hoped for tbh) and re-scanned libraries - all collection albums now appear correctly 👍

Also, if you have an album called 'Home' the search/indexing seems to return 2 identical entries... Retag it 'Home1' and all is fine - 🤷🏼‍♂️

Notice that on Reddit thread there's a schedule that pushes into Nov... but no mention of album art... HD banners etc…

After a couple of days it's all stable, but load up initially is nowhere as sharp as previous version and the Sonos Favs 'generate' rather than 'appear'… Hmm

'Line in' section of 'your sources' remains hit and miss if it appears/populates on app load or not without a significant lag... ☹️☹️

Lag is often an indication of your Sonos device having trouble connecting to your controller. 

Have you read the wifi interference FAQ?

Have you performed a simple network reset, by unplugging your Sonos from power, then rebooting your router, waiting a couple of minutes before plugging back in your Sonos? 

Have you submitted a system diagnostic within 10 minutes of experiencing this problem, and called Sonos Support to discuss it?

@Airgetlam Myself and others... Have you read 

?

Yes, I have. In addition to using my own system daily for playback. Not everything can be blamed on a single issue, unfortunately, although it does seem a large portion of people want to. 

However, I worded my response quite carefully. It allows for the possibility of many different reasons as to why there might be an issue, and attempts to cover many of them, while providing a feedback loop if none of the offered options help.
