Not ideal, but you can hookup an AppleTV to line in on a connect:amp and airplay this way.
Insanely expensive buy in for that feature. I just happened to have the amp as my first sonos product and an appletv I no longer use (switched to Fires)
- derriz 8y agoYes - this is what seems to be the recommended solution. But as you say, it's insanely expensive particularly as my main use-case which was to allow my partner to listen to youtube videos from her iphone. And as well as the expense - I don't have an AppleTV or Connect:amp sitting around - it feels kludgy to me as it involves a needless round-trip between digital and analog. Also it's not user-friendly - to listen to a youtube video cast from my iphone requires fiddling with 2 apps.
- xfitm3 8y agoI run airsonos on a local server, which exposes all my Sonos speakers over Airplay individually.
- chrisan 8y agoOoo thanks for this! Will try it out. I already have a pi running pi-hole, would be nice to have 1 less device sucking electricity :)
