Feature Request: Manual sorting/filtering of favorites list

[rbreneman]

Sonos defaults to sorting the favorites list A-Z and that is how the media browser card displays. Would be awesome if there was a way to manually sort (without a drag/drop option in Sonos app, this would likely be manually entering names into yaml, not ideal but better than nothing) and then control which favorites display and then use multiple media browser cards with custom titles. For example, one card shows radio stations, another card shows my wfie’s favorites, etc…

Summary, 2 asks:

• Manual sort order. Provide via yaml config the order that you want to see favorites displayed
• Ability to show/hide specific favorites by name or the service (Apple Music, Sonos Radio, etc...)

Thanks, I'll see what I can about this!

Being able to just enter a short list of favorites in a list, and then having them pushed to the top, while all the other favorites flow in below them, would be awesome.

This would give us a way to push the most used to the top, without having to prefix them with _ and other characters 🤣

@maddox @rbreneman Please try this beta, and let me know how it works for you: https://github.com/johanfrick/custom-sonos-card/releases/tag/v6.7-beta1

Example:

In the visual editor:

In yaml:

type: custom:sonos-card
topFavorites: # Show these favorites at the top of the list
  - Legendary
  - Country Rocks
  - Kacey Musgraves Radio

WOO! Works great. I know this is a super niche and pedantic request, but it really helps the usability of the playlist picker. Thanks!

i'm seeing weird behavior now where it only lists my playlists from Sonos favorites, and not the stations. I can see the stations in the media browser though.

[punxaphil]

I still see stations. Please share your config.

entityId: media_player.sonos_family_room
sections:
  - player
  - volumes
  - groups
  - grouping
  - media browser
topFavorites:
  - Chill Station
  - Van Morrison
mediaBrowserShowTitleForThumbnailIcons: false
mediaBrowserItemsPerRow: 1
view_layout:
  grid-area: c2

This is very odd. I use a custom domain for my hass. When i use that, i don't see stations. When I use the regular IP and Port, i see stations.

This is also causing the topFavorites to not actually work.

I'm also seeing this error in the console:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) http://IP:8123/hacsfiles/custom-sonos-card/custom-sonos-card.js.map

[maddox]

I'm also not able to push items to the top that have quotes in them:

Ollie's List, Jon's Rotation, Jon Maddox's Station

Sorry to catch all these AFFFFFFTER the release!

[punxaphil]

No worries, nothing is ever bug free right? 😄 Thanks a lot for testing it so quickly, this made me find another bug also regarding special characters. Bug fix release is out: https://github.com/johanfrick/custom-sonos-card/releases/tag/v6.7.1 Please test 🙏

Looks great! 🎉

This is great! Would it be possible to have another field that could accept a comma separated list of favorites and a boolean option to show/hide the favorites in that list? Use case would be of my 30+ favorites I only want to make 4 of them available in a specific card on a specific dashboard page (kids room, kitchen, etc...)
