It seems that in attempts to use the latest CVS releases I had a Plugins/LastFM/Plugin.pm and a Plugins/LastFM/LastFM/Plugin.pm, which were out of sync. I've nuked everything and reverted to the 11 August release versions LastFM1113.zip and SlimScrobbler035.zip. That's fixed the misisng LastFM entry in Player Settings > Menus. If my submission problems persist, I'll have a more controlled attempt to use the CVS versions. James: thanks for all your patience on this one, there's nothing like remotely assisting hopeless users! By the way, does anyone know how to turn on debugging flags from startup using the deb package init.d script? The obvious route of setting SLIMOPTION=--d_plugins doesn't seem to work. I can only turn on the flags at startup by doing a direct /usr/sbin/slimserver --d_plugins and bypassing the init.d script (which accounts for the fact that I rarely think of doing it!). -- smc2911 smc2911's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4388 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26816 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Re: scrobbler help
The missing string could explain why you don't see LastFM in the web interface - are you using any non-EN languages? This shouldn't matter: slimserver will fall back to EN if a translation is missing. And in this case it even says "requested language EN" :-).

RE: [slim] Re: scrobbler help
Hmmm. The error message indicates no genres found, which means it can't submit tags to LastFM. It appears you will get these errors even if tag submission is off. However I can't see what could have generated all the other errors. I tried this myself with a track with no genres and it worked fine. You are using the latest code from CVS?

All of these tracks (which are FLAC by the way) have a genre tag. The Jah Wobble track, for example, is tagged with genre=Electronic. Even so, I'd be a little surprised to see error messages appear when no debug flags were set just because a genre tag was missing. -- smc2911 smc2911's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4388 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26816 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Re: scrobbler help
I find the scrobbler is still playing up. For example, submissions were going yesterday, with the last posted track being the last played of the evening. Today I just realised nothing had been posted. I did a manual submit and now the last 10 tracks are up, but I've played at least 40 today, so it looks as though the earlier ones have been lost. This time I haven't been mucking around with the server (i.e. no upgrades, restarts, etc). -- smc2911 smc2911's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4388 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26816 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Re: scrobbler help
It tends to be fine for several hours, but periodically stops. For example, yesterday it was working during the day, but then this evening I noticed that it hadn't submitted for 1d 1h. I then did a manual submit, which immediately worked and it's autosubmitting now with no problem. -- smc2911 smc2911's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4388 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26816 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

(The timer doubles each time submission fails, so it can become a very long wait quite quickly.) Do you not ever see the automatic submission happening? BTW is this for SS 6.3 or 6.5?

[slim] Re: scrobbler help
I've found that the problem has recurred a couple of times. I suspect that what happens is that once a submit fails (perhaps due to a slow response from lastFM), the plugin reverts to caching to a local file, but it won't try again until you either to a manual submit or change the autosubmit status. If this is the case, it may be worth changing the plugin to periodically reattempt submission. In the meantime I've found that a single manual submit using the remote gets things on track. -- smc2911 smc2911's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4388 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26816 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Re: scrobbler help
thanks for the help. i followed smc's advice and turned autosubmit off, restarted slimserver, turned it back on and restarted again and now things seem to be ok.

It suggests that the scrobbler attempted to submit to last.fm 135 seconds (2:25) ago, but the submission failed. So it's waiting 480 seconds (eight minutes) before trying to submit again, and in the meantime is just logging things to the file. Could you find something in the log from an attempt to submit to last.fm? BTW you shouldn't lose logged tracks if you restart slimserver.

[slim] Re: scrobbler help
I had a similar problem (only I'm on 6.5) and I found that if I went through the SB interface Plugins > Audioscrobbler > Submit Now everything in the text file was submitted. After a few iteration setting automatic submit (through the plugins page of the webUI) to off, restarting the slimserver and setting it back to on, everything started to behave again. Not very scientific I know. By the way, before restarting the slimserver, do the manual submit otherwise you'll lose everything in the text file. That way at least you'll post whatever was collected since the last restart.
