foo_enhanced_playcount: Exception making call to last.fm. Returning empty response.

Thanks for this useful component. It works well outside one issue.

I can't get any last.fm scrobbles for tracks that contain certain punctuation characters in their title or album field:

Code: [Select]

This is the error message that shows up in the console:

Code: [Select]

foo_enhanced_playcount: Exception making call to last.fm. Returning empty response.

I see that punctuation is mentioned in the change log, so I'm not sure if this just some problem on my end or not.

That's weird. I haven't seen any issues like this. Can you post the entire URL of the call that is being made to last.fm?

My bad, the problem is definitely on my end. I use foobar2000 under Wine and can't get any scrobbles now. I used a Windows VM before that which worked fine.

Do you happen to have an idea what could be needed to make it work? I have already tried installing .NET framework 2.0/3.0 but that didn't help.

		try {
			response = request->run_ex(url, callback);
			response->read_string_raw(buf, callback);
		} catch (...) {
			FB2K_console_formatter() << COMPONENT_NAME": Exception making call to last.fm. Returning empty response.";
			buf = "{}";
			cacheable = false;
		}

You're in the wrong topic. This component doesn't scrobble. It "retrieves" scrobbles back from last.fm, it doesn't send them.

Yeah, you're right about that But there's something wrong with the playcount too - I've managed to scrobble it with google music, and now I've got this:
