Zeus 7997 Posted July 24, 2015 If you are using the scrobbler that comes with the Last.fm client, it can sometimes cause these issues. I don't know why. All I can suggest to you is what I suggested to @diamondAss in this thread. Try another media player with a built-in scrobbler like foobar2000 and see if that fixes your problem. 1 Dark Kinma reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Kinma 960 Posted July 24, 2015 I will tru Foobar, I was trying one time, but because some user (especially one) didn't know how to tag correctly, all music who I listen ripped by this one, appears with no tag on foobar, so I decide to didn't use this player. I will make a try again if that can fix my problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eiheartx 1310 Posted July 24, 2015 I also have double scrobbles suddenly, but I'm not scrobbling via the official app atm. Is the problem general and coming from last.fm itself? It was working this morning.dammit, where is the serious concurrent so I could leave this shitty website for good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted July 24, 2015 Yeah, same problem here, lots of double or triple scrobbles lately... 2 Dark Kinma and Licio123 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Kinma 960 Posted July 24, 2015 I using Foobar, and I have still the same problem ! Memory cache and tracks appears in double.I think we can just wait of the fixing problem by last.fm ... I guess in two or three century... Edit 17h35 : I have uninstall scrobbler of my computer et re-install properly it, problem still working xD ! I have read on internet, if the track was put in the memory cache, it's because scrobbler isn't connect to last.fm, do you confirm this ? 18h00 : Apparently, after uninstall and re-install and use only one account on the scrobbler, it's working good, for the moment but still making double. I will check if it's good working the rest of the day, and week end. 2 Zeus and Licio123 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yakihiko 1480 Posted July 24, 2015 Now I have not only one problem, but two xD My first tracks don't scrobble, like I'm listening tracks, A, B and C... The A, don't go xD And, if I listen to an intro track, this one don't get and the before get double. I love Bug.fm <3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Des 289 Posted July 24, 2015 There's nothing wrong with your scrobbling devices or music players, it's just last.fm's scrobble detection server (or whatever you call it) is messing up (disconnecting?) frequently. The continuously on/off switching of your scrobbler happens because if it can't find the last.fm server it switches off and saves the scrobble in memory to scrobble later. But if it scrobbles a song then switches off after scrobbling but switches back on before the song is actually finished, it may scrobble another time because it doesn't remember it already scrobbled before it had trouble finding the last.fm headquarters. Or it has something to do with the percentages of a song listened before scrobbling. I think the default setting is at 50%. Meaning that once the 50% bar of the song length is reached, it scrobbles. If it disconnects after reaching 50% but reconnects before 100%, it may scrobble again. If you're using the external last.fm scrobbler you should be able to mess with the settings and tell it to scrobble only at 100% of the song listened instead. If this works you should be able to get rid of double scrobbles at the risk of not scrobbling anything at all. If you're using a scrobbler that's a built-in feature on a music player then I don't think you can change this setting. Pay attention to longer songs: higher odds that they scrobble double, triple... quadriple even! 3 Licio123, Dark Kinma and paradoxal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeus 7997 Posted July 24, 2015 That may be a very good explanation of what's going on. I haven't been able to replicate this behavior but this is probably because I queue all my scrobbles and submit them at one time so I'm not connecting frequently to their servers.

Licio123 181 Posted July 24, 2015 It's their problem. I read on a topic created there that they will only fix this when the beta version is stabilized. So, maybe in 2101 we can stop deleting multiple scrobbles! Oddly enough, when I scrobble through my smartphone, this never happens. 1 Dark Kinma reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Kinma 960 Posted July 24, 2015 Have make a change of scrobling program, says it's does scroble at 100% of the music, but make double, I have disactive the labs who I use "Recent tracks auto refresh" and still make double. This problem appears some day ago (2 or 3) I hope he will disapear in some day xD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JukaForever 758 Posted July 24, 2015 I don't get that problem. I use a foobar extension and the last.fm app is disabled. Google foo_audioscrobbler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Kinma 960 Posted July 24, 2015 I don't get that problem. I use a foobar extension and the last.fm app is disabled. Google foo_audioscrobbler How that work ? I have dowload the extension on foobar website, now I unzip, and after ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JukaForever 758 Posted July 24, 2015 No clue how the extension works technically but there should be a thread on it somewhere in hydrogen audio for the details on a technical level. But just google it, and there should be instructions on how to install in one of the searches. It isn't too complicated. http://www.hydrogenaud.io/forums/index.php?showtopic=100399 1. Download foo_audioscrobbler: http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_audioscrobbler 2. Unpack to your foobar2000 components-folder. 3. Start foobar2000 and open Preferences > Tools > Audioscrobbler. 4. Enable, then login with your Last.fm credentials and hit OK. 1 Dark Kinma reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeus 7997 Posted July 24, 2015 I also covered that information here. It seems like it's not very well known so I'll steal @JukaForever's thunder and advertise it now. 1 Dark Kinma reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrenGun 2259 Posted July 25, 2015 it's easy to solve.. just go to your playing settings... and check if the option is enabled. if yes, disable it and enable it again. restart last.fm and your player and it should work. Also check your last.fm app to see if the scrobbel setting is enabled. 1 Dark Kinma reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Kinma 960 Posted July 26, 2015 I has make what you say, DarkWater that doesn't work, problem still on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lestat 2167 Posted July 26, 2015 I think it should just be made fact that this is Last.fm's problem. It has likely happened to anyone who uses their client at least once or twice, and currently there's no discreet hotfix for this. Perhaps when they will release the beta from its current state worldwide will it be resolved. 1 Licio123 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Kinma 960 Posted July 26, 2015 I hope they will release the finish version of beta soon, I think the problem it's on the last.fm scrobler don't connect to their server correctly. Nut I has try too Foobar with extension like JukaForever say's, and no problem appears. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Des 289 Posted July 30, 2015 The issues are persistent! I had a quick look and... Calm down, last.fm! You've had your fun. Playtime's over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sakurai-san 50 Posted August 3, 2015 I don't have this problem but I want to suggest the use of VLC media player, it has the scrobbler incorporated into the player so you don't have to download any scrobbler, you just have to login in the options box. I've always used it and I don't have this problem so you can try and see what happens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
