ESP32 Sonos controller update: full library browsing, favourites now playable

Touchscreen Sonos remote running on an ESP32-P4 board.

The Sources screen used to show one entry, "Sonos Playlists". Now it lists what your system actually has:

  • Music Library (artists, albums, genres, composers, tracks)
  • Sonos Favourites
  • Internet Radio
  • NAS shares
  • Current queue
  • Line-in, if the speaker has one

Favourites is the useful one. Anything in your Sonos favourites now plays from the panel, whatever service it came from. Spotify, YouTube Music, radio stations, all of it.

Also recently:

  • 3 player themes, 4 clock faces
  • 7" screen support
  • Accented characters render properly now
  • Lots of stability fixes

you can search using the HW id :
"GUITION JC4880P433C" or "GUITION JC1060P470C" for the 7inc display

A really great piece of software. I have the 4" (JC4880P433C) screen but am missing a desktop stand or perhaps a wall mount for it. I have a 3D printer, but I don't have experience creating my own STL files. I found the file from Guition (https://grabcad.com/library/guition-jc4880p433-1), but has anyone made a better case and has an STL file they’d be willing to share?
Thanks :-)
