SetAVTransportURI command not working for live streams? about sonos2mqtt HOT 4 CLOSED

The first command tries to execute the SetAVTransportURI command on the sonos device class, which only accepts 1 parameter https://github.com/svrooij/node-sonos-ts/blob/master/src/sonos-device.ts#L410-L413

This isn't the same as the AVTransportService.SetAVTransportURI which accepts your specified parameters

You could call it by using:

{
  "command": "adv-command",
  "input": {
    "cmd": "SetAVTransportURI",
    "val": "x-rincon-mp3radio://http://ice3.somafm.com/groovesalad-64-aac"
  }
}

That results in the same code as with you other command https://github.com/svrooij/sonos2mqtt/blob/master/src/sonos-command-mapping.ts#L70-L71 .

Problem is that the library does some uri encoding, apparently it doesn't do a good job for this url. (the http://... is encoded as http%3a//...), and I just found this is even in the code (the not doing a great job part) https://github.com/svrooij/node-sonos-ts/blob/master/src/helpers/xml-helper.ts#L81-L87

Solution (/workaround)

If you just remove the http:// part from the url the commands start working (if you send the correct payload).

Can you confirm this helps?

Yes, this does help! This command appears to work:

{
	"command": "setavtransporturi",
	"input": "x-rincon-mp3radio://ice3.somafm.com/groovesalad-64-aac"
}

Although it seems to choke on the colon again here:

{
	"command": "setavtransporturi",
	"input": "x-rincon-mp3radio://ice3.somafm.com:80/groovesalad-64-aac"
}

Your input to the adv-command works too (after removing the http:// in my stream url). I use the CurrentURIMetaData parameter to set the title of the station. I stuff this ugly chunk of xml into the CurrentURIMetaData parameter in the SetAVTransportURI command:

        <DIDL-Lite xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:upnp="urn:schemas-upnp-org:metadata-1-0/upnp/" xmlns:r="urn:schemas-rinconnetworks-com:metadata-1-0/" xmlns="urn:schemas-upnp-org:metadata-1-0/DIDL-Lite/">
          <item id="R:0/0/49" parentID="R:0/0" restricted="true">
            <dc:title>$title</dc:title>
            <upnp:class>object.item.audioItem.audioBroadcast</upnp:class>
            <desc id="cdudn" nameSpace="urn:schemas-rinconnetworks-com:metadata-1-0/">SA_RINCON65031_</desc>
          </item>
        </DIDL-Lite>

How about (the node-sonos-ts library also has some metadata generation build-in):

{
  "command": "adv-command",
  "input": {
    "cmd": "AVTransportService.SetAVTransportURI",
    "val": {
      "InstanceID": 0,
      "CurrentURI": "x-rincon-mp3radio://ice3.somafm.com/groovesalad-64-aac",
      "CurrentURIMetaData": {
        "Title": "your_title",
        "UpnpClass": "object.item.audioItem.audioBroadcast",
        "ItemId": "R:0/0/49",
        "CdUdn": "SA_RINCON65031_"
    }
  }
}

Yes! That worked, and it's so much less ugly too 👍
