Re: [Banshee-List] Scrobbling Issue...

[IBBoard <ibboard gmail com>]

I've just tested 2.6.2 on openSUSE and it seems to scrobble okay.

As it is reporting "now playing" then it is scrobbling something, and I
assume that means it is both logged in /and/ set to enable reporting
(since "now playing" is reporting and it doesn't seem to differentiate
between that and permanent scrobbling).

Try running Banshee from the command-line as "banshee --debug" and see
what output it gives when it tries to scrobble. Based on the source
code[1] then it should log something when it tries to queue a track to
scrobble, and it'll queue it when it is valid (long enough to bother
with and is a music file) and you've played enough of it (half of the
track or 4mins, whichever is shorter).

Also, check what is in
~/.cache/banshee-1/extensions/lastfm/audioscrobbler-queue.xml - Banshee
appears to cache scrobblings there [2], if they fail, so you might have
a month's worth of tracks queued but not scrobbled because of an error.
