Using Linked Sonos Zones in an Event

[Camguy52]

I've added TTS Zones through the Sonos Link Group Table and successfully run events that Speak through many Sonos Zones.

I just don't understand how to get Sonos Zones to link together and Play a RadioStation as part of an event.

For instance, I want my Living Room, Office and Garage Sonos Zones all to play together. If I set this up in the Link Group Table under the Linkgroup Name "Fam/Office/Garage", I don't see anywhere where that "Fam/Office/Garage" label shows up under an event or as part of the "SonosController Actions". Under the Player Actions dropdown I see "Link" and "Unlink" but I'm not sure what these do.

Do I need to do all my Sonos Linking and Radio Station Selection through Scripting?

Any help would be appreciated,

Doug

Doug, once you created the linkgroups, if you go to the HS2 web control page for devices, you should now see 2 new buttons Link-xyz and Unlink-xyz being created under the Music UPNP Master device.

In your event, you now select "Device Actions", select the "Sonoscontroller Music UPNP Master" and now you can select the link-xyz or Unlink-xyz. Then you add a second action to the same event, to select a sonos action, select the player you used as ZONESOURCE in your linkgroup and do with it what you want ..... play track/radio....
