No, BCM Stream is an online product. You need to install the software on your own (Windows) PC or Laptop, or you can use the web player.

Does BCM Stream support direct playback to Sonos speakers?

The BCM Stream software does not support direct playback to Sonos speakers. The music is delivered to the Sonos speakers via a line input, which is available on several Sonos devices.

There are also software solutions to offer the sound of a computer to Sonos speakers. We have no experience with this software and cannot support you with it.

How does the BCM Stream work in a corporate network?

The BCM Stream does not require any open incoming network ports. All communication will be outgoing. It uses the ports for HTTP (80) and HTTPS (443) but also port 65101. You have to take into account that the BCM Stream will download the following file types:

  • .exe (Software updates)
  • .ini
  • .zip
  • .sw6s
  • .jpg
  • .png
  • .mp3
  • .sea
