Add support for Sonos Music API to Plex server

Sonos have a free partner program for building connectivity to their system: http://musicpartners.sonos.com/?q=node/21

 

It would be awesome if I could add Plex as my music source in Sonos and view my music library & playlists directly from the Sonos controller.

With the new PMS updates, it would be great if plex could integrate with my Sonos. I'd love to have PHT playing my music on my TV/surround sound, but I can also have my Play 3's in the rest of the house in sync!

Agreed - I will throw a vote to this

Thanks George. Can you please click the "like" on the first post in this thread. That's how the feature voting works. :-)

I don't think this is what I was after at all, but any and all Sonos integration would be welcomed :)  

I want to add Plex to my Sonos controller in the same way I add Spotify, so I can browse my (now premium) music library directly from the Sonos controller app on any device.

An extra reason this integration would be good is the native Sonos local media library has a 65k track limit which many users run into.  Having Plex provide a way around this limit would drive a lot of (well, a few at least) people to install the Plex server for this very reason.

Agreed.  At this point I'm still running Madsonic (music libs) just for this purpose (Sonos).  If Plex were to support Sonos then I'd have another program I could un-install to simplify my setup. :)

I have been waiting for a solution like this for several years. Have more then 65K tracks in my music collection after ripping all my vinyls to digital format.

So I have hit the limit for what my Sonos system can support and to have Plex integrated into Sonos would make a lot of people like myself very happy.

I love Plex and i love my Sonos-system. You have my like on this one!

Is there any update on this?

Even if I can’t use the Plex app to stream to my Sonos speakers directly (I can see the Sonos speakers in casting though, which is really just teasing me at this point because it doesn’t actually work), it would be awesome to be able to import my Plex playlists into the Sonos controller.

This is the one thing I need to throw iTunes away once and for all!

Oh what a tease, indeed.
I’d love to see a feature from plex to integrate wit Sonos.
Eihter using the Sonos API (http://musicpartners.sonos.com/?q=node/21) or lets say, using Plex as a Radiostation to which Sonos can “tune” on.

hooray! https://www.plex.tv/blog/plex-sonos-better-together/
