Hi,
No, Last.Fm dictates performing artist is sent :(

Is there any way to have MM provide album artist info so last.fm knows when you scrobble a compilation album with various artists?

Strange, but OK as MM5 uses scrobbling (WEB) API 2.0 and MM4 uses (Direct) API 1.3, but problem is most likely that plugin is blocked on your side.

And it even looks better than 4.
Happy Monkeying!

That deserved a follow
I rarely Scrobble these days, but glad you liked my choices.

Hi Peke,
thanks for help! Changing to MM 5 did the trick. Downloaded latest MM5 installer, imported data when promted, from 4 to 5 and didn't even have to install the plugin again. Scrobbling like a charm now♥

Hi,
Install MM5 as portable and try to setup Last.FM there.

Also check any residual Last.FM files in same folder where MM Library file is

Also check mediamonkey.ini to see if your last.fm password is correct and what were the last 4 last.fm responses.

Only thing I can think of is that some app blocks Last.FM plugin to connect to Last.FM as it uses own internet connection for asynchronous access submit. Service failed usually means issue is either on Last.FM site or User PC specific settings.

Thanks for all the replies, I really appreciate you guys time for trying to help.
How can I double scobble If I only use one program like MM to do so? I'm sure I'm not double scrobbling because I deleted the fm's scrobbler. The only plugin installed now is the one for MM. I downloaded the one linked in this forum. So, no clue what's wrong. I will double check a bit deeper for leftowers, but I'm sure it's all gone.

ETA:
Ok, I checked for leftovers, none.
I changed my passwort in fm and MM, none.
Sill says: Sevice status failed, no scrobbles.

Again, I'm using MM version 4.1.31.1919 (Gold livetime) latest version it says when clicking to check for updates.
Looking through the forums I know that I'm not the only one with tthis issue. No clue why it is so hard to make it work.
Guess I have to live with the iTunes msi desktop plugin or WMPlayer :(

Hi,
Are you sure you are not double scrobbling? As that way Last.FM usually omits both scrobbles (That never worked correctly).

Hi,
Not sure what you tried but I tested MM4 (Plugin), MM5 (Native) and both works without issue.

Actually this is the first time today of installing the plugin. I'm a last fm member since 2008 and used to scrobble my music with iTunes. I left the page when all the page changes accured. I wasn't scrobbling anything since 2016 lol. Now returning back checking out the (stupid) new last fm page layout and trying to get use to it, but their latest and older plugin does not work with iTunes 12.6. So I was looking for some alternatives and came across a plugin for MM. I didn't know that this program had a plugin for last fm. Installed it today, but as already posted, it does not work for me. Win 10 64 bit

ETA: I have contacted fm support and they told me that the older iTunes are not supported anymore, only the latest one and Media Player. Media Player does work, but I'm not a fan of it. I only use iTunes and MM. I then downloaded latest iTunes and their lates msi plugin version, and it does work, but I do not like it because you can't see the scobble list anymore in this version. That's why I tried MM's plugin.

Has this been happening over a longer period of time or just recently (there was an internet outage today).

oh ok, I must have missed that, sorry, but the last fm issue remains... already tried what is mentioned in this thread like delete cache.bat but no luck. Stuff gets cached but not scobbled.

As explained here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=97733 new users can't post URL links as a spam prevention. However adding an extra space url. com will allow it to be posted and a moderator can fix.

Hi

I too have a problem with the last fm scobbler for MM.
My MM version is 4.1.31.1919.
I installed the scobbler and I can see the green icon in MM, but when I play my music, it does not show as scobbled on my last fm profile page. Is there anything else I have to do to make it work?

ETA: exemple pic of the settings is impossible to add here. Not matter what I try, it does not work. Keeps saying to remove the url, but when doing so the pic wont be displayed :-? If I click add URL it says to remove it. What's the sense in having all these options when they don't work?

I am unable to download the last.fm scrobbler from the website. Is it still working?

Patrick
I couldn't get it to download using Chrome, but when I tried Firefox, it worked. Maybe it's an Chrome extension issue for us? I disabled uBlock, but that didn't help.

Hi,
No, it is hardcoded according to strict Last.FM API.
