llygoden 6 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Hi All, Would it be possible to add Sonos streaming to the Android app? In my head it would work in the same way as the Chromecast streaming currently works. I've been looking at some public APIs for Sonos https://github.com/SoCo/SoCoand it seems you make a UPNP connection to the device and can then send the track to be played as a URL. This would allow people to play their music at any location that had a Sonos device, regardless of if the server was on the same network.

braigo64 6 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Was anything ever done with this? Currently thinking getting either a Sonos speaker or Amazon Echo to play from my music library, preferably via Emby if anything like that exists yet.

Luke 36992 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 We already support Dlna using Emby Server, so this should be fine for you in your own home. This request is about going outside of network, to a friend's house for example, and being able to cast to their Dlna devices (such as Sonos).

Nuc123 0 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Hi, Was anything ever done with adding support for casting to sonos on a different network?

PrincessClevage 173 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) It would be a pretty good technical effort if you can get this to work, basically the app on the mobile device would have to be a proxy of some sort or stream up to an public emby server and then Sonos pull down stream (only way I can logic it in my head lol) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited July 10, 2017 by PrincessClevage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latinumking 6 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I just came to this rather old request. Is this feature implemented in the meantime (an if so, how to make it happen?) If not, I would really like to have a streaming for music outside the house as I have the streaming for other media date (i.e. movies) Keep the great Emby solution rocking, Emby is so powerfull, I learn about new features on an on...

Dlna can't support Sonos groups so right now that is the primary benefit of the Sonos plugin. Over time though we will likely add more Sonos specific features that dlna can't match.
