Sometimes, you don't want your friends to know you're online - that's my reason for stopping the scrobbling and caching it instead..

I've just released foo_audioscrobbler 1.3.7 which now uses the Audioscrobbler Realtime Submission Protocol v1.2 with fancy "Now Playing" indicator on your profile page and uses foobar2000's field remappings to access track information.

You can get it via the first post of this topic.

Kind regards,
Florian

Thanks a lot for your work, Florian  Can you add an indicator like %audioscrobbler_cache% to titleformatting?

sweeeeet! the 1.2 protocol also gets rid of some spam protection errors when submitting cached tracks after other recent tracks have been played. any plans on submitting musicbrainz id3 info?

It's great that the protocol for the component's been updated, but is there any chance we can be able to set the submission point back at 50% track length instead of when the track's completely done?

V 1.3.7. gives me Track has no artist or title info - not submitting to Audioscrobbler.
But the track does have artist and title info, but it's lacking album info, can this be fixed in the next release?

FIY, V 1.3.6. does not behave like this.

And thanks for the plug-in

Glad that you like it!

The plugin tries to read the MusicBrainz Track ID from %musicbrainz_trackid%

No. Simply because the new protocol requires to submit the tracks as soon as the track stops. Then it gets submitted if you played the track at least 240 seconds or 50% of the track - whatever comes first.

Kind regards,
Florian

Sure, I'll fix that to the next release. Thanks for reporting!

1.3.7:

If %album artist% == "V.A.", "Various Artists" is scrobbling instead of %artist% tag  it's bad..

I updated my scrobbler to 1.3.7, but am no longer able to correctly submit tracks. First, I get an notification in console:

"Now playing notification failed: Response invalid".

Then at some point it did submit two tracks, but Last.fm informs me that:

"Some tracks you submitted have not been added to your profile for the following reason:
The track you submitted appears to be badly tagged - please check the file's tags."

The odd thing is, that I first played a VA disc and it tried to submit at the start of the track, whereas when I play a "normal" (one artist) album, it wait until the end of the track before submitting. With my limited testing, this error only seems to occur while playing tracks where %album artist% info is available. As soon as I start playing one artist albums, it seems submitting just fine.

Same here!
The track is scrobbled at the end:
Code: [Select]
Submitting track to Audioscrobbler...
Submission succeeded.

but actually last.fm ignore them and reports they are badly tagged.

Example track:
Artist Name : Marcos Valle
Track Title : Escape (Kashmeer Brothers 2007 Remix)
Album Title : Brazilectro Session 9 (CD1 cômoda)
Album Artist : Various

I'm not experiencing such a problem, as of yet.

My tracks are mostly tagged as such:

Artist: 金莎
Track: 雪绒花
Album: 不可思议
Album Artist: 金莎

Just FYI, they're in chinese. Album artist and artist are the same (for those who can't see).

You dont have the same problem as us because they are the same.
For example:

Artist Name : Monoral
Track Title : Kiri
Album Title : Ergo Proxy Opus 2
Album Artist : Yoshihiro Ike

Monoral should be submitted instead of Yoshihiro Ike

Yeah, I liked the old method where %artist% was being submitted instead of %album artist%

I'll keep using %album artist% because it has other advantages (as has been pointed out here), but will use %artist% instead as soon as I detect "VA", "V.A.", "Various" or "Various Artists" in the %album artist% field.

Why not provide input fields where we can enter titleformatting for what we want to be submitted for the artist/track/album titles? That way everyone would be happy

Thanks again, hope you'll fix an issues with VA soon.. "now playing" is a great feature

Also
Can you add an indicator like %audioscrobbler_cache% to titleformatting?

I've just released foo_audioscrobbler 1.3.8 which now detects various artist albums properly based on album artist field, fixes a bug where tracks with empty album name have not been submitted, and adds a title formatting field for the cache size %audioscrobbler_cache%.

You can get it via the first post of this topic.

I dont understand it. In both cases that user has incorrectly tagged his files and is submitting false information to Last.fm. The actual artist "Björk Guðmundsdóttir & Trió Guðmundar Ingólfssonar" on last.fm (& discogs) reveals there are plenty of other people who can properly tag their files. "Bjork" is not the artist.
BTW. "The Lord of the Rings: The Complete Recordings", there is only one artist. "Howard Shore", other artists provided vocal backing for some tracks, however that doesn't make them artists for that track (discog).

By doing this, last.fm is only being fed more bad data. And the user complaining should tag his files correctly.
Because last.fm has bad data that doesn't mean you have to feed it more. Last.fm should heal in time.

I am still unable to use the plug-in in its current state because I dont have any albums as "VA" or the like.

I think you're right. I'll look into this this evening.

We could have the option for the new scrobbling style and the old scrobbling style with regards to the artist .

Just an idea.
