SONOS issues

snail1 · 11 Feb 2015 at 09:12

I was wondering if someone could do me a favour with their SONOS system. Over the last few days I have been unable to stream live Football or Cricket on Radio 5 live and get a message about rights management. I am pretty sure this is new for me as I have listened to live sport plenty of times in the past.

Could someone check if it is working ok on their SONOS so I can see if it is a problem with my system or something more general? I have also e-mailed SONOS tech support but no reply yet.

Streaming works fine to my PC with no issues so I am pretty sure it is not an IP-address issue.

Thanks for the tips, all is working tonight but not sure if there are any rights issues. See how we go I think. Cheers

So I am still having the problem. Sonos tech support has helped, but I still cannot listen to live sport on 5 live or sports extra. I have tried booyakas tip with no joy. However it looks like the problem us with tunein as I get the same issue with the stand alone app.

Could someone try 5 live with live sport for me over the weekend?
Thanks

It appears that this is all to do with changes to how the BBC are streaming internet radio.

Just to give an update. The streams through tunein are still not working. But I have installed minimserver on my NAS and it streams in a format suitable for the SONOS.
