    Which platform you are running this on, which other plugin , info .... info ... info ....... logs, screenshots, traces, things tried .....
    Announcements weren't working - as I mentioned, it was primarily due to me wrecking the network, but installing the beta was just one step in my resolving it. Those nagging issues aren't up for discussion, as the plugin generally seems to be working just fine. The issue is the "See plug-in config" bit that refuses to go away.

    HS3 is running on a dedicated Windows box. Other plugins etc. are shown here:



    Going into the Sonos plug-in config doesn't show me anything unusual, and all my Sonos devices have been detected:

      ?????


      Why does it need to go away?

      This is how HS3 implemented this kind of PI aka SingleExeMultiplInstance type of PI; it doesn't show a remove button nor provide a link. Suspect it had to do with the fact that you would need multiple links for each instance of the PI.

      So do I need to assume all works?

        Hello,
        First of all, sincerely Thank You for the plugin. I only use it for announcements, but it completely fulfills my needs in that area.

        I have just attempted to update the plugin to the latest version, v. 3.1.0.15, from my current version, which is 3.1.0.13. The update repeatedly fails:

        Updater Error

        Unable to open install.txt file for update C:\Program Files (x86)\HomeSeer HS3\Updates3\SonosBETA 3.1.0.15
        I tried updating after first disabling the plugin, to no avail.

          It appears I forgot to include a file (install.txt) in the package. I've notified the HS team to repost.

          Sorry for the problem.

          if you are dead in the water, find attached the missing file that needs to go into the <hs root>\Updates3\SonosBeta 3.1.0.15 directory and then retry the install.

              IMPORTANT: Announcing EOL (End-Of-Life) of the Sonos PI baseline version 3.0.x.x

              This posting is just a heads up that I'm going to pull this version from the updater (media section) and replace it with the baseline 3.1.x.x which currently can be found on the updater under the beta section. Once I pull it, I'll post the last version here, just in case someone believes he/she needs to stay on that version.

              You can find all the info of the R3.1.x.x versions here (http://board.homeseer.com/showthread.php?t=174119). Note it has more functions and fixes that version 3.0.x.x.

              Version 3.1.x.x combines support for Windows and Linux and does not rely on Windows components such as SSDP (UPNP) and DataBase.

              The R3.1 baseline has been around for almost 2 years now, has for the last year received all fixes and new functions, whereas the R3.0 baseline has not been updated for a while. It is not a beta, it just sits in the beta section of the updater!

              The two baselines are 100% identiical with respect to their configuration, interaction with HS, so never/ever should you be forced to start deleting devices or players or ini files.

              What IS different is the musicDB and the radiostationDB. The MusicDB is very easy to recreate, just go to HS devices, find the Sonos Master device, click "control", click "BuildDB", that's it. The RadiostationDB is dynamically built each time you play a radiostation. If you have events that rely on that DB, just play the radiostations that you use in your events and you are all set. It is that simple.

              You can switch back and forth between the two versions, just by going to the installer and select either one, it shouldn't be more complicated nor should you try to do it differently. I'll leave both version on the updater for a couple more months but after that, the beta version goes away in the beta section and ends up replacing the old baseline in the Media section of the updater.

              Do use the updater to switch version because there is a difference in files whether you install under windows or Linux and the installer will nicely take care of that ... copy/paste WON'T.

              Perhaps one word of caution, both PI versions rely on UPNP which is built on multicast messages, event TCP messages etc. In the R3.0 baseline, the UPNP was a windows component, in R3.1 it is part of the HSPI_Sonos.exe. SO make sure your Firewall allows the HSPI_Sonos.exe to have full allowance to your Ethernet port(s). If players are not discovered or events are not received, you have almost 100% sure a firewall allowance setting issue!

                    Hi Dirk,

                    I try this in a vb script;

                    Sub Main(parm as object)

                    Dim var
                    Dim Tag AS String
                    Dim pi As Object
                    Dim Album As String

                    Tag = hs.DeviceString("992")

                    hs.PluginFunction("Sonos", "RINCON_000E58B6ECA401400", "PlayMusic",{"", "","010c451ca0.m3u","","","","","","","",false,0})

                    'hs.Plugin("SONOSCONTROLLER").MediaAPI.PlayMusic("", "", Tag)
                    'pi.MediaApi.PlayMusic("","",Tag)
                    'pi.PlayerPlaylistPlay("Woonkamer", Tag)
                    'hs.WriteLog("Sonos Tag", Tag)



                    'hs.WaitSecs(5)
                    'Album = pi.MediaAPI.CurrentAlbum
                    'hs.WriteLog("Sonos Script", Album)

                    No error in the log but not working!

                      Look at any Sonos controller when you run the script. Is it switching to your playlist? You may need to add a play command to your script.

                      Turn debug flag on, take trace, post log.

                          I Don't have the code here in front of me but the last two parameters, play with them, they are ClearPlayerQueue and QueueAction. You can see its affect in the log if you trace on this "PlayMusic" command.

                          Change the QueueAction from 0 to 1 or 2 (don't know by heart but is should be qaPlay)

                              Sonos not working on version 3.1.0.15

                              I have a Homeseer SEL with Z-Net using Sonos plug-in version 3.1.0.15 in our office and this is not working. Did work at one point (on and off) but now does not work at all. All Sonos players load, can see them but nothing updates or can be controlled from HS3.

                              I have an SEL/Z-Net in my home using Sonos plug-in version 3.1.0.11 which works perfectly. I tried to upgrade to version 3.1.0.13 when that was available but kept getting errors so I did not try to update to 3.1.0.15

                              I did get errors when updating the office SEL to 3.1.0.15 and tried to re-install the plug-in but keep getting a message that it downloads but failed to load.

                              Any suggestions? Is there ever going to be a way to delete the Plug-in and then re-install for those of us who do not know how to navigate through a system?

                              Thanks,

                                I don't know why HS3 doesn't have the "delete" button for this kind of PIs (MultipleInstanceSingleEXE), that is a HS question.

                                Unless devices were deleted manually or DBs were restored, deleting and reinstalling the Sonos PI really doesn't solve anything.

                                The PI discovers devices using multicast messages, If for whatever reason that doesn't work, you can indeed not communicate with any player nor get updates from any of the players. This is almost the problem for 100% of the cases and not a DB issue that requires deleting players or PIs. As said before, when it is required to delete stuff, it was almost 100% caused by the user starting to delete stuff and ending up in a worse state rather than better.

                                If you want to delete the PI, it is very simple:

                                - stop the PI via the HS controls
                                - stop HS3
                                - go to the HS3 root directory and delete the HSPI_SONOS.exe
                                - delete the Sonos directory (if you want to save a few MB on your disk) which can be found under <hsroot>/html
                                - delete the ini file in the <hs root>/config sub directory

                                Here is a list of problems I've seen over the last year:

                                - firewall, firewall, firewall !!! If you have a firewall app active on your device check whether the PI ITSELF (remember it runs as a standalone exe) has allowance.
                                - I had issues initially that for a newly discovered player, the event coming from the UPNP system, for whatever reason doesn't make it to the PI. I thought I had that fixed (read workaround) but maybe there are still coner cases. If your system is in such a state, post and I'll ask you to take some info.
                                - I noted that having heavy logging into the console window (Linux OS) consumes a lot of memory and not clear whether that was a leak. I removed logging from console windows a few versions back,
                                - If you cannot upgrade, disable the PI by hand, do the upgrade and start manually if not by itself.
                                - Also check for CPU/Memory resources if you see issue. The memory use of the PI is quite dynamic, especially when the MusicDB is being constructed, so if you run it on a constrained system OR you have a large Sonos Music DB, this could cause issues.

                                Remind me again, is this SEL the new SEL or the old? In other words, the Linux version or Windows?

                                Dirk
