SONOS commands to group players

[rocfusion]

Hi,

To group players you need set the uri of each player to the master player. note as you add each player to the group,  this takes time to do, which is why there is an sleep added after each player is placed into the group. Once you have groups the players, set their volume then you can set what to play on the master.

 One BIG note to point out when you work with SONOS implementation you will need to make sure that ALL sonos players are be configured with a static IP.  The only way to do this is use DHCP reservation which is configured for each player in the router.


Event based script

Code:

   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.24', 1400, 'Stop')
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.24', 1400, 'SetVolume', '<Channel>Master</Channel><DesiredVolume>40</DesiredVolume>')
   uri = '<CurrentURI>x-rincon:RINCON_000E58DC0F3601400</CurrentURI><CurrentURIMetaData/>'
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.8', 1400, 'SetAVTransportURI', uri)
   os.sleep(1)
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.9', 1400, 'SetAVTransportURI', uri)
   os.sleep(1)
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.20', 1400, 'SetAVTransportURI', uri)
   os.sleep(1)
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.25', 1400, 'SetAVTransportURI', uri)
   os.sleep(1)
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.8', 1400, 'SetVolume', '<Channel>Master</Channel><DesiredVolume>20</DesiredVolume>')
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.9', 1400, 'SetVolume', '<Channel>Master</Channel><DesiredVolume>20</DesiredVolume>')
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.20', 1400, 'SetVolume', '<Channel>Master</Channel><DesiredVolume>20</DesiredVolume>')
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.25', 1400, 'SetVolume', '<Channel>Master</Channel><DesiredVolume>20</DesiredVolume>')
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.24', 1400, 'SnapshotGroupVolume')
   uri = '<CurrentURI>pndrradio:2496906846458345314?sn=1</CurrentURI>'
   meta = uri  .. '<CurrentURIMetaData>&lt;DIDL-Lite xmlns:dc=&quot;http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/&quot; xmlns:upnp=&quot;urn:schemas-upnp-org:metadata-1-0/upnp/&quot; xmlns:r=&quot;urn:schemas-rinconnetworks-com:metadata-1-0/&quot; xmlns=&quot;urn:schemas-upnp-org:metadata-1-0/DIDL-Lite/&quot;&gt;&lt;item id=&quot;OOOX2496906846458345314&quot; parentID=&quot;0&quot; restricted=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;dc:title&gt;Rihanna Radio&lt;/dc:title&gt;&lt;upnp:class&gt;object.item.audioItem.audioBroadcast&lt;/upnp:class&gt;&lt;desc id=&quot;cdudn&quot; nameSpace=&quot;urn:schemas-rinconnetworks-com:metadata-1-0/&quot;&gt;SA_RINCON3_massimo@massmore.com&lt;/desc&gt;&lt;/item&gt;&lt;/DIDL-Lite&gt;</CurrentURIMetaData>'  
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.24', 1400, 'SetGroupVolume', '<Channel>Master</Channel><DesiredVolume>40</DesiredVolume>')
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.24', 1400, 'SetGroupMute', '<Channel>Master</Channel><DesiredMute>0</DesiredMute>')
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.24', 1400, 'SetAVTransportURI', meta)  
   upnpavcmd('192.168.0.24', 1400, 'Play', '<Speed>1</Speed>')

Common Function

Code:

   function upnpavcmd(host, port, cmd, param)
   local client, soap, reqs, service, res, err
   
   require('socket')
   client = socket.tcp()
   client:settimeout(3)
   
   -- try connecting to upnp endpoint
   res, err = client:connect(host, port)
   if not res then
   return nil, err
   end
   
   -- guess service name based on command
 if cmd =='SetGroupVolume' or cmd == 'SetGroupMute' or cmd == 'SnapshotGroupVolume' then
   service = 'GroupRenderingControl'
 elseif cmd == 'SetVolume' or cmd == 'GetVolume' or cmd == 'SetMute' or cmd == 'GetMute' then
   service = 'RenderingControl'
   else
   service = 'AVTransport'
   end
 
   -- soap envelope
   soap = '<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" s:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">' ..
   '<s:Body>' ..
   '<u:' .. cmd .. ' xmlns:u="urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:' .. service .. ':1">' ..
   '<InstanceID>0</InstanceID>' ..
   (param or '') ..
   '</u:' .. cmd .. '>' ..
   '</s:Body>' ..
   '</s:Envelope>'
   
   -- http request
   reqs = 'POST /MediaRenderer/' .. service .. '/Control HTTP/1.1\r\n' ..
   'CONNECTION: close\r\n' ..
   'HOST: ' .. host .. ':' .. port .. '\r\n' ..
   'CONTENT-LENGTH: ' .. soap:len() .. '\r\n' ..
   'CONTENT-TYPE: text/xml; charset="utf-8"\r\n' ..
   'SOAPACTION: "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:' .. service .. ':1#' .. cmd .. '"\r\n' ..
   '\r\n' .. soap
   
   -- send http request
   res, err = client:send(reqs)
   if not res then
   return nil, err
   end
   
   -- get reply and close connection
   res, err = client:receive('*a')
   client:close()
   
   return res, err
   end
