Big fan of this plugin and I've integrated a couple of Insteon Keypads to do volume control, playlist control, etc..
I've been reading some info about the Idle Power Consumption of Sonos players.. Basically the claim is that turning off wifi can reduce consumption by approx 2W per player.. A couple of links:
- Sonos power consumption - https://sonos.custhelp.com/app/answers/ ... -when-idle
- How to disable wifi - https://bsteiner.info/articles/disabling-sonos-wifi
My feature request is to add a Sonos Action to disable the Wifi.. Basically you could invoke this action based on different events in your house ( i..e nobody home, on vacation, etc) .
I did a couple of local tests on my system at home but nothing extensive.. As the Sonos system creates a 'mesh network' I think it'd probably be something where you'd wanna enable/disable 'all players' in your house at once. However, I haven't played around with this too much to know if Sonos would work ok if disabling the players independently.
Curious if this has been considered for the Sonos Plugin..
