ExtraVeg Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Sonos Radio-Automatic Synchronization Massive Time Saver Our Sonos driver is a great way of integrating online music within a Control4 system. Internet Radio, SiriusXM and Pandora are three of the most popular services. We've now made improvements to our driver that will make a massive difference both in intial set up and on-going use of the driver. The big news is that now Control4 media favorites will automatically be kept up to date with any Sonos Internet Radio Favorites or your customer's Pandora stations. You can also import the entire SiriusXM line up in an instant. If you've got 5 minutes then take a look at the video of this awesome new feature. http://youtu.be/JIfu_xEFTYw__________________________________________________________________ Pandora Stations You probably love Pandora. You can add stations using many different Pandora devices such as Sonos or via the Pandora website. The problem is these new favorite radio stations they add don't appear on the favorite Radio Stations list on their Control4 system. That is until now! No matter how you add (or remove) a Pandora station to your account the Control4 system will now be up-to-date within 5 minutes. Completely automatically. You just set the driver to keep in sync and it does the rest. You never have to use Composer ME to add or delete station. And you will never make a mistake mis-spelling the Pandora station name. __________________________________________________________________ Internet Radio Favorites Sonos is a great way of accessing real radio stations that broadcast across the Internet. In the past you have had to set these up on the Sonos system and then set them up again as Control4 media favorites. Not any more! All you do now is set them up on the Sonos system and then as you list them on the Control4 interface they are automatically added to the Control4 media favorites under Radio Stations. That saves you time - and cuts out the potential to make mistakes when re-entering the detailsin Control4. What's more if you adds a new station on your Sonos system it will get added to the Control4 Radio Stations list the next time youlist the Radio Stations from the Sonos driver (or automatically within 24 hours). __________________________________________________________________ Sirius XM Internet Radio Did you know there are now over 230 Sirius XM radio stations available? Did you ever set them all up on a system? That's time consuming. The driver can now do this instantly for you, importing in all of the SiriusXM channels into Radio Stations. If SiriusXM adds new stations then the driver will automatically up date the list. __________________________________________________________________ What's the catch? There is no catch. You just need to be aware that if you program wake up calls or keypad buttons to play a station and then you deletes that station then it won't work any more. Kind of obvious but worth pointing out. Just also be aware that when a station is deleted Director will delete the programming - so adding the station back in doesn't re-create the programming. __________________________________________________________________ Available Now! The updated Sonos driver is available now. There is no additional softwarecosts for upgrading the driver but your dealer may charge forinstallation.
