Has anyone been able to send their Sonos a format other than MP3 via the Media Extractor? I can do this via my media library (sending MP3, M4A, OGG, etc., all work fine), but I’m not sure if HA is doing some transcoding that I am not aware of when sending that over.
For the media_extractor.play_media service, I have only been successful sending a link to an mp3, otherwise, I am getting incorrect MIME type errors.
Service call to play an m4a file:
service: media_extractor.play_media
data:
media_content_id: >-
https://rr1---sn-fvf-qufd.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?<... rest of url>
media_content_type: music
target:
entity_id: media_player.my_sonos
Error:
soco.exceptions.SoCoUPnPException: UPnP Error 714 received: Illegal MIME-Type from
<ip>
This seems odd because Sonos claims to support a range of formats.
I’m also a bit confused about the media_content_type portion of this service call, as the dropdown list gives a list of some options such as MUSIC, CHANNEL and PLAYLIST MUSIC, but for all of the predefined options, I get errors like the following:
Logger: homeassistant.components.sonos.media_player
Source: components/sonos/media_player.py:658
integration: Sonos (documentation, issues)Sonos does not support a media type of “MUSIC”
I have only been able to make this work with music (case matters). So I’m not sure if this isn’t working because I am providing an incorrect content type (what other options are there that Sonos accepts)?
