My setup includes a raspberry pi with Darkice and Icecast2 streaming on my local network so that I can play my vinyls through my Sonos system. This has been working perfectly for over a year now, but with the new Sonos app, my “favourited” stream has disappeared. So I am unable to play my vinyls through Sonos.
I’ve tried adding the Tune-in (new) service, authorised my account, added the custom URL - which works fine through the Tune-in app. I’ve even marked it as a favourite, but it’s not available through the new Sonos app.
I’ve removed and re-authenticated the tune-in (new) service a number of times, hoping it would refresh, but no luck.
I’m not interested in all the public streaming radio channels and would just like to be able to play my vinyls locally as I've been able to.
Has anyone managed to find a solution to this?

I ran into the same issue but solved it.
I am running RasberryPi and DarkIce to stream to my local network and then using Sonos to play the stream via TuneIn (New).
I upgraded to the new updated Sonos app on my iPhone and lost my access to TuneIn (old version) -this lost my self-created TURNTABLE stream. Worried I could not recreate it but I was able to get it working again in the new Sonos app using TuneIn (new).
Upgrade Sonos App.
Run the ICECast Streaming Media Server on your a local PC/MAC.
Make sure you’re running the turntable and rasberry Pi has is powered up/plugged in. Note: if you can’t figure out what the URL of your Icecast stream is, you might be able to find it under the TuneIn (old) on the Sonos app on your PC/MAC (if you ever used it). You can upgrade the Sonos app on PC/MAC and it should still show the TuneIn (old) app (unlike the iphone which get rid of the TuneIn (Old).
Open Sonos App and click on TuneIn under YourServices.
Scroll to Favorites > Click on Streaming Link for Turntable.
Click Play Button and you should hear your stream if you have a Sonos Room selected and you turntable/raspberry pi are sending a signal (and your icecast media server is working). You can check your icecast media server status via your PC browser by going to your streaming URL + admin page (i.e. http://10.0.0.88:8000/admin/. (clicking on listclients will show if your rasberrypi is sending a stream).
Click … (3 dots) above TuneIn (New) . Live Station.

Make sure your Turntable & RaspberryPI and casting/running before trying to add the URL. Check your browser IceCast url (i.e. http://10.0.0.88:8000/admin) yours may be different…. to make sure you have a stream showing up under the listclients section.
@huzee1, I have the same setup. I have my stream working in my (android) app, but I do not see the stream in the sonos app. I can't even see anything like "favorites” folder for TuneIn. Do you maybe know how to fix this?
@NB96 I also can’t get this to work. I add the station in the TuneIn app, and can listen to it there. But it never shows up (after several days now) in the Sonos app.
@huzee1 did you add the TuneIn app to Sonos before or after adding the custom stations? I’m curious if I need to delete TuneIn from Sonos and re-add it.
