I confirmed that the show is playing without issue on Fedora, Debian, Windows 11, iOS, and Android.

Please provide more information as to what you mean by "Cant play podcast on Sonos"

  • Do you mean can't play the media or that you can't subscribe to the feed ?
  • What sonos application do you mean? I do not have access to a sonos device, so you will need to describe the steps involved in reproducing the issue.
  • Do other HPR shows play or are you talking about the entire HPR xml podcast feed ?
  • Can you also clarify "some others play others don't" - do you mean other podcasts or other HPR podcasts ? In either case provide examples with name and episode, and type, eg HPR1234.mp3 and GWO300.opus plays but FOO321.mp3 and BAR123.spx don't

"do you do your own processing" - yes we do see process_episode.bash

Can you please provide some way of contacting you so we can work together to fix the issue. Ideally by creating an account on our git tea instance

I've added Sonos to our Documentation, if you would like to become janitor there that would be great.

Hi still don't understand what is happening, so i tried to play HPR4396 this morning as podcast appeared in my feed, wouldn't play but tried it again and it now plays, something must be happening to the podcast where Sonos is pulling them from, anyway thanks for your help i have a solution now.

Actually I would prefer to get to the bottom of the issue and not just walk away once you found a workaround. I don't want to have to waste even more time in six months when someone else has the problem.

Please send me the IP address you are using, and the feed you are using so that I can check the logs on our side.

Then I will want you to subscribe to a new test feed to check what is the behavior.
