in LogScrobbler 0.14 there is a button that says "Fix Zero Timestamps" its normally for people who have a player that is not setting the timestamps of what time the track was played, but works great to fit all your tracks as close together in time leading right up to the current second.

Great app. But a quick question... How does logscrobbler get the current time?
Whenever I use the fix zero function or the function to place songs ahead of the last posted item... the times are ahead of the actual time by several hours My computer clock is correct. What is logscrobbler using to set the times? |
|

Yes the time can appear ahead of your timezone because I have to set the time to UTC, according to the audioscrobbler standard found on this page http://www.audioscrobbler.net/wiki/P...Player_Logging
an explanation of UTC can be found here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time Hope that helps some. One of the features I wanted to add was to set the timezone in LogScrobbler so it would look proper before you submit. I have recently moved over to a Linux only environment so development has kinda frozen for a bit, I am hoping to write LogScrobbler in a Cross Platform language.

LogScrobbler converts the time in the file to UTC so if you are in PDT LogScrobbler will convert the time to time +7 Hours, if your log does not contain timestamps use the using the zero timestamps button LogScrobbler will get the current time from your computer clock, total up the time from all of your tracks, subtract that from the current time,(and stamp each track with the proper time based on length) this will make it look like you just played all of the tracks in order up to the current second. then it will convert those to UTC, in my case being PDT it will add 7 hours to the tracks, when Last.fm gets them it will look like I just played them, and the last track will show up as "Just Played"
here is a link referring to PDT to UTC http://www.timeanddate.com/library/a...es/na/pdt.html

is there a linux alternative? I am using ubuntu feisty, just switched from windows
|

Well I am working on a Linux version but I am not sure what language will be easiest for me to work with yet, I am mostly a PHP developer, but made this in C# pretty easy, I guess I could try mono. I also am pretty much full time booted into Feisty as well, so I also need a good Linux app for scrobbling.
I was hoping that adobe would release their linux version of apollo soon, as I am pretty good with Flex/Apollo I think it could work pretty good to make a nice little gui scrobbler there is a perl based app but it does not do all the timeshift stuff that I put into LogScrobbler.

I am having a problem sending my scrobbler.log file information to last.fm using logscrobbler.
I have being using it before with no problems at all. Tried today after a month and I get the message: "Nothing to sync or there was an error connecting to last.fm" Is anybody else having the same problem? Has anything changed in last.fm website? Any help would be apreciated. Thanks.

Can anyone help me, I just starting using this utitily, and my scrobble logs (on my H140, so timeless) never log the first song I listen? If I power up my iriver and play four songs, the log only logs songs 2 3 and 4, not the first....Can this be fixed? Does anyone else have this problem?

Thanks Petur for the new program suggestion. LogScrobbler worked fine today so it should have been a problem with last.fm website. But I will try QTScrobbler next time.

Although I appreciate the work you've done on LogScrobbler, I wonder why you don't join forces with QTScrobbler. It is also a one-man project but IMHO he is further down the road than you are. He's got a version coming up that uses the new protocol (so no more spamprotection hits) and is making builds for linux and windows. I'm sure you two could make it advance faster if working together.

I have been qetting this same error lately a lot. It used to work without any problems... i wonder why...
i tried that qts-scrobbler thing as well, but i couldnt find any installing information, and apparently just launching the .exe file is not working. at least for me. some strange and long and technical error message... Quote:

The last.fm upload server has been down for almost a week. Seems to be up right now but don't know how stable.
QTscrobbler should just work. Once started, set your login details via de menu (global -> settings) edit: seems to be all down again. Last time I checked they were aware of the problems and dealing with it. Be patient edit2: and now working again....

The part of QTScrobbler that does the submission (libscrobbler) is being integrated in rbutil (RockboxUtility), so we'll soon have a yet another tool to uploade
