I cleared all the text boxes and saved. Then disabled proxy and authentication and closed xmplay. When executed again, i enabled the options and filled the proxy, port, user and password boxes. Saved and the above message again

Hmmm, this is strange. I modified the message so it should say that authentication is used. I attach version with a slight change. Stupid question - are you sure that you replaced old xmp-scrobbler.dll with the new one?

Now it changed:

I'm sure i replaced the other one. In fact, i did it two times. Don't know Well,  the new message appears but the issue persists.

Hm, OK, this is weird. I attach another version with some more debugging info being written in the log, please test it and paste log contents here.

I played two songs...

[yagood]

 

I don't know why it's not working, there seems to be some problem with libcurl (library which I use to do all networking stuff). All I can do right now is try to get more information about this error, so please try attached version and paste contents of the log.


BTW I see on your profile that you are listetning to music with other player (since xmp-scrobbler doesn't work) and that you have some songs cached from the past in xmp-scrobbler. Well, I'm afraid this cache file is going to be useless when we solve this problem and you'll be able to connect with XMPlay, because Last.fm doesn't accept submissions timestamped before what was already submitted properly...

[adscvr]

Well, no problem with the played song in the cache.

I will try this and paste the log tomorow because now i'm at home (i have this issue in the computer at work).

Thanks!!

[yagood]

Thanks for that, now I have some more info to work with. I'll try to find a cause and fix it as soon possible... I'm sorry for inconvenience 

[adscvr]

Thanks for that, now I have some more info to work with. I'll try to find a cause and fix it as soon possible... I'm sorry for inconvenience 

No problem! Thank YOU!

[yagood]

I think I found the cause of this problem, it's a technical thing so I won't bore you with it. Bottom line is that it should be OK. Unfortunately I have another problem now and I can't build new version without fixing it, so please be patient, it shouldn't take long.

PS. If it's proxy at your workplace - will you be able to test it on weekend or on Monday?

[yagood]

OK, I managed to build new version for you - link. Try this and please report back with log contents. I hope it'll fix all problems with your proxy server.

[adscvr]

PS. If it's proxy at your workplace - will you be able to test it on weekend or on Monday?

On tuesday, because here we have a holiday on monday. I cannot wait to test it!!

OK, I managed to build new version for you - link. Try this and please report back with log contents. I hope it'll fix all problems with your proxy server.

Thanks!! I will try it as soon as i can!!

[adscvr]

It didn't work...

Something weird has happened: I closed xmplay but the log file kept growing in size. I checked the threads of the system and found that xmplay kept running. I didn't occur with the previous build of the plugin.

Attached is the log file.

Thanks!

[yagood]

 

There must be something wrong with this network library I'm using, it cannot handle your NTLM proxy properly, I'm going to have some chat with developers, maybe they can come up with something, maybe it's a bug in libcurl... Thanks for your report, I'll try to fix it as soon as possible.

[yagood]

OK, one more build to try, probably the last one. If this won't work, I'll need to find new way of doing network stuff...

[adscvr]

OK, one more build to try, probably the last one. If this won't work, I'll need to find new way of doing network stuff...

It has the same date, time and size that the previous one. Is it really a new build?

[yagood]

Hmm, yes, it's a new build. Try this link.

[adscvr]

Hmm, yes, it's a new build. Try this link.

It didn't work...

[yagood]

OK, thanks for testing, there's not much I can do as probably I'll need to rewrite some networking code and have no time for this right now, because of very important exam at the university coming in a week, so you'll have to be patient, sorry...

You can try using cache file - listen to music at work and then try to submit it at home just by copying xmp-scrobbler.cache.

[adscvr]

OK! Thank you and good luck with your exam!!

[Torkell]

You could try using WinHTTP, Urlmon or similar. IIRC they use the Internet Explorer HTTP stack, and so should speak to all NTLM proxies (as well as detect your browser proxy settings).

[yagood]

Thanks for the advice. I'm considering using WinINet API as it works fine for Winamp plugin. I really wanted to make it work with libcurl, I talked to devs on IRC, but there was no clear solution... I'll post to their mailing list, because this behavior looks like some internal bug with handling NTLM authentication in libcurl. After the exam I'll decide how to resolve this situation.

[nihq]

I have a strange problem that I didn't have with any previous versions. I'm on 0.5b, and each time it submits a track to last.fm, it freezes the whole computer (except for the mouse cursor) for a few seconds. I'm no computer wizard but it seems pretty self-evident that it's hogging up all system resources and/or bandwidth for itself while submitting. Is there a way I could overcome this or do I just wait for a new build?

The problem shouldn't be of system resources since previous versions have been pretty much invisible with regards to processor use. Anyhow, my setup is a Celeron 2800mhz, winXP, 256mb RAM.

[yagood]

Hm, strange indeed. So version 0.5 works fine, right? Not much has been changed from 0.5 to 0.5b, but if you could provide xmp-scrobbler.txt log file, that would be helpful, thanks.

[nihq]

I think I jumped straight to 0.5b from some earlier one, might have been 0.2 or even 0.1. I had crashes with some version, but that has been sorted out already as I recall. I guess it might do good to test each version's functionality on this setup while waiting for a fix.

Here's a portion of the logfile (one day's content)
