J to the D Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Is this within the properties tab in system design? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 No. It's in programming. On the right hand side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich2626 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Will this work with active and WiFi connected sonos speakers, eg sound bars and play one? Or do they need to be connected back to an amp in rack and then connected to my EA3? Also, does anyone know if any other WiFi or Bluetooth speakers will accept C4 announcements for the Chime? Or is it only Sonos? I was considering fitting a couple of Lithe Audio Bluetooth active ceiling speakers and would love to push a notification to them!

net_tech Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Is playing an announcements on SONOS Playbar not supported? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not, in the documentation it list the devices that are supported. Only newer sonos devices (Beam, Amp2, Port2, Arc). I think maybe the newer play5 is also supported...I don't have one to test.

MscMan Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 The New Sonos 5 works perfectly. Pc of cake to set this up. Thanks for the insight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MscMan Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I have 2 C4 projects at different locations. I am able to see my Sonos speakers at one location via the Device Specific Command, but not at another location, where I get a "no supported players found" message. See the attachments. Both systems are updated to 3.2.4. Using the 99 driver versions for both the Sonos Network and Individual speakers. I have identical speakers at both locations with Firmware at S1 or S2 levels. I tried to reload the drivers assuming there was some corruption, but to no avail. Any recommendations on how to troubleshoot this ? One project uses an EA3 and the other an EA5 controller.

MscMan Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 BTW, the older generation Sonos One speakers work with the Play Audio Clip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pick list requires that sonos can be found via ssdp. When you are in composer do you see the speakers listed under the Discovered Tab?

Here were my steps: 1. Upload an mp3 file of the announcements to the Controller. I first created a new (dummy) item in the C4 announcements agent, and then clicked "add" to add the mp3 file. The new file then showed up as an option in the announcements agent. 2. In the Sonos Network driver, choose "Play Audio Clip" and then the Sonos Room. You can then put in whatever dummy name you like in the name field. Finally, I inserted a URL to the filename on the controller. This is of the form, http://[Controller IP address]/announcements/[File name]. So, for instance, if your C4 controller is at 192.168.0.20, and the file name is Gary's awesome announcement.mp3, you would enter the following URL, http://192.168.0.20/announcements/Gary's awesome announcement.mp3. (I am not sure if the file name is case-sensitive, but I was careful to match the case showing up in the file name list within the announcements agent in case it matters.) Finally, my queue will no longer be junked up every time I call an announcement from the favorites list. I am so happy! Let me know if this helps you. Legend, Glad I searched here! all working for me DLite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J to the D Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Has anyone had any issues with this no longer working? I had this all up and running but for some reason it has stopped and I can't figure it out. When I had music on the other day the music seemed to stop when the doorbell went but no sound was played. I have checked the file and its still there... Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The announcements point to the local IP of the controller, make sure that hasn't changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh I tried to manually execute it and it just wouldn't work. I have since renamed the audio file and added it back into announcements which seems to be working. Very strange but at least it's working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crustyloafer Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Only issues I have ever had was when the IP address of the primary controller the file was stored on changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
