`sonos play-uri`

Sets the current transport URI on the group coordinator and starts playback. Use --radio to force Sonos's radio-style controls for http(s) streams.

#Synopsis

sonos play-uri <uri> --name "<Room>" [--radio] [--title "<title>"]

#Flags

Flag	What it does
`--radio`	Force radio-style playback (no seek / no track) for `http(s)` streams.
`--title string`	Display title (used as radio metadata).

#Examples

# Internet radio
sonos play-uri --name "Kitchen" --radio --title "BBC R4" "http://stream.live.vc.bbcmedia.co.uk/bbc_radio_fourfm"

# A direct file URL Sonos can reach
sonos play-uri --name "Kitchen" "http://10.0.0.10/audio/test.mp3"

# A Sonos-specific scheme you already have
sonos play-uri --name "Kitchen" "x-rincon-stream:RINCON_XXXX"

#When to use what

Have a spotify: URI or share link → use sonos open.
Have a Sonos Favorite → use sonos favorites open.
Have any other URI Sonos can play (radio, raw file URL, x-rincon-…) → sonos play-uri.

#How it works

Calls AVTransport.SetAVTransportURI with the URI (and minimal DIDL-Lite metadata if --title is set), then AVTransport.Play.
