turls Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 http://www.electronichouse.com/article/updated_sonos_app_allows_music_search_across_all_apps_and_libraries What this says is that the most robust experience with systems such as Sonos is always going to be with the system’s native app. If you bought and set up your Sonos system yourself, then this doesn’t really matter. If you had a home automation installer integrate Sonos into your home’s larger system and you want to use this new feature, you’ll have to use the Sonos app, rather than your central control app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecodeman Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I'm not sure, but wasn't this what EV was previewing at CEDIA, while waiting on some functionality from C4? If Will sees this maybe he can chime in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMHarman Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Universal Search... *That's* what I'm talking about! Awesome. Tivo and Roku have been doing this on streaming media / tv shows for sometime now. It's nice to see someone on the audio side finally catching up The question is, are they cacheing search data within their systems or is this a SONOS search that generates multiple searches out to the search functionality of each of the vendors and then consolidates results. I want to know why used SONOS cost so much! There are people trying to flog used ZP80s on ebay for $70 less than the retail price of a SONOS CONNECT. Why would I buy that with no warranty and no knowledge of the use / abuse history! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wappinghigh Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 ^ LOL!!! You know why! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chesterwilson Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Very neat. Media search on Myhome (PC/Iphone/Ipad) and the touch screens needs improvement. Universal Search is great. I'd also prefer a search suggest drop down list. Rhapsody is so particular and if you don't spell it exactly it comes up blank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMHarman Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 ^ Thats on Control4, do it on app.rhapsody.com on the internet and it autocompletes / suggests. This is probably a C4 functionality problem that it can't run queries on the virtual keypad. Here's looking to 2.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have commented. We're not changing the number before the dot yet. Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
