You are running a current version of the Plex Media Server.

If this fixed the problem, but you had to move a speaker to where you don’t want one, you may want to look at the Boost as a solution, but I recommend you get in touch with our technical support team before spending any money, to see if they can isolate the issue and resolve it at no cost.If your Plex app is not finding or connecting to your Plex Media Server, please first ensure that: One cable will change how they all connect, and connecting the cable and waiting 1 minute is all you need to do. What router do you have, and how does Sonos connect to it (as in, do you have any ethernet-wired Sonos units)? If all your Sonos products are wireless, it would be worth testing with any one Sonos product wired to ethernet.

Music being interrupted isn’t likely to be due to token errors. Having said all this, I re-read your initial post and there could be something else going on here. You may find, as I have, that the problem isn’t so hard to fix and it’s worth doing it each time. Having mentioned these caveats, sure, disabling automatic updates on both systems is likely to suspend the issue for a while (though I can’t say for sure as I only suspect updates to be the issue in the first place), but if you use other services you may run into problems (or non-Plex-related problems you’ve already run into won’t be fixed).

I can only recommend that you keep your Sonos software up to date.Īs for Plex, due to the fact that it interfaces with the cloud (Plex’s servers) I think you may come across (non-Sonos related and Sonos related) issues with Plex if you don’t keep your server up to date, and I think this will be more likely if you use it in conjunction with Alexa, or remote-access Plex from outside your own network. I recommend you get in touch with Plex support, as the volume of contacts they have from people regarding this will count to how seriously they take the issue. Sure, Plex works differently from other services, but this fact remains.

Hi terms of Plex being a music service, they are responsible for maintaining compatibility with Sonos, not the other way around. If anyone else has another solution, it would be welcome This works with no problems for meĪll that sounds well… but I don't have too much knowledge about Nas and I think I'll have to learn. My current solution is running subsonic on my Synology via docker.

For some odd reason SONOS can not seem to use the Synology media server BUT you can install a lot of other media servers on your synology via docker. Synology has a native UPNP media server aptly named ‘media server’. If you want to use SONOS Library on a SYNOLOGY, I only have found this alternatives from other forum:ġ- Using a Virtual DMS instance that runs SMB1 and only has read only access to the music to avoid enabeling SMB1 on the host DSM.Ģ- SONOS speakers can play music from UPNP media servers on your network…. I don´t understand how Sonos has not already found a solution for this important problem. And I decided to use Plex instead of only Sonos app, because using this you need to lower the security level of your Nas (SMB1), and this can be dangerous. I am testing Plex on a cheap paying mode that don´t allow me to play the music to a Sonos speaker.
