v4.14

Choragus v4.14

Home-theatre controls, sidebar grouping, and a queue that keeps up.

• Night Mode and Dialog Enhancement in Now Playing. No trip to the EQ window for the two settings you change nightly — and the Surrounds tab now appears on every system that actually has surrounds.
• Group from the sidebar. Double-click a room to edit its group, or drag one room onto another to group them.
• The queue keeps up. The playing track stays in view as tracks change, with the highlight and level bars arriving within about a second instead of lagging or dropping out.
• Media keys can be turned off. Some Bluetooth and USB headsets send a play command when a call ends, which could start music unexpectedly. Settings → Keyboard Controls hands the keys back to other apps.
• Volume that moves together. Hold the group slider at zero for a second and every speaker rises in sync.
• Rename favourites, and see which folders each Sonos system indexes as local music.
• Rooms that went missing come back. A group whose coordinator no longer matched its own members left the system visible but uncontrollable until a relaunch; it now repairs itself.
• Speakers on another VLAN. The speaker search now crosses routers instead of stopping at the first one, with a hop limit you can raise in Settings → System.
• Help covers the whole app, in all 13 languages.
