Hi Harlank,
The Mezzmo android app works with UPnP media renderers so if the sonos music device is a upnp renderer then the Mezzmo app should be able to work with it. Does the sonos get listed in Mezzmo on the PC in the Play to menu?
Sonos is not listed in the play to menu. What I understand is that sonos players are UPnP compliant, cannot act as a server but that they are a media renderer. I have used an streaming app called 8player on an ipad. it recognized the Sonos players and used Mezzmo to seamlessly stream music to the four sonos players I have in the house.
We may be able to get Mezzmo working with the Sonos devices, please enable diagnostic logging in Mezzmo on the PC http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...nostic-logging then after restarting your Mezzmo media server turn on the Sonos device then after about 5 minutes send the logs to support [at] conceiva [dot] com and we should be able to see the Sonos description document.

I have tried twice(yesterday,and fifteen minutes ago) to send the logs to support@conceiva.com and both messages have been returned as "undeliverable"

We are receiving many support emails daily so there does not appear to be any major service problems. It may be possible that the logs you are sending are >10MB and the email is being rejected as being too large. If you have not done so already, zip up the logs to make them smaller and then email the zipped logs to us - or upload them to a filesharing site like Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, etc. and email us the download link.
Ill try one more time-the logs are zipped and only 441 kb

Got them now :). We'll report back via email after we analyze them.
Thank You Paul-really appreciate it.

Was this matter ever resolved? I have Mezzmo on my home Windows PC and the Sonos speakers installed on the same network. Clearly the Sonos software is designed to work both with Windows Media Server and Rhapsody UPNP Server but the software appears to block Mezzmo and other 'third party' upnp server software.
Obviously this is by design by sonos, but I was wondering if there was some kind of work around... I assume it would mean Mezzmo going through some kind of proxy service and identifying itself as a Windows Media server... Does Mezzmo have that capability?
I'm just curious to see if there is an answer to this issue?
