Onkyo: Unable to view Playlist

JMost — Thu, 05 Mar 2026 21:43:56 GMT

My premium account works great on my phone, but when I sign in to Pandora on my Onkyo TX-8260, I can only see the stations in my collection. None of my custom playlists show. I've repeatedly signed out of Pandora on the Onkyo, as well as reset the receiver to factory specs, but still no joy.

I'm an old boomer, so maybe that's it, but it's frustrating.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate hearing them./

Thanks

Hi @JMost

Welcome to the Community!

Thanks for taking the time to explain what’s happening, and no, this definitely isn’t a “boomer moment.” 😊

What you’re seeing is actually how Pandora functions on Onkyo devices. That device only supports access to your station collection, and custom playlists aren’t available through this integration. Since it’s a device limitation, signing out or resetting the receiver wouldn’t change the behavior.

I completely understand wanting your full collection, especially when it works seamlessly on your phone. You can see a list of devices that do support the Premium experience here.

If you’d like to access your playlists through your receiver, you can stream Pandora directly from your phone to the Onkyo using Bluetooth (or casting, if your setup supports it). That way, you’ll have full access to your playlists and complete control of your account while listening through your receiver.

Hope this helps to explain.
