[Tsorovan]

I think it's quite endearing.

[Zarggg]

It's forumspam.

[jammer]

one more, xmscrobbler often disappears from the list of selected dsp plugins. right now, i've just gone into the options and seen it deselected. :/

Amit.

[lingenfr]

yagood has been kinda quiet this month. Hope that a new version is coming out soon.

[Zarggg]

Does anyone else get "bad authorization" errors CONSTANTLY?

Plugins don't unload by themselves, at least, they shouldn't . Do you have Saved settings that automatically load? They apply to DSP-plugins too .

Ian,

Please boot this spambot.

[Ian @ un4seen]

I think it could just be a bored human, rather than a bot, as I've not seen any other spam since the "Captcha" thing was added.

[lingenfr]

OK.

Some WMA files aren't being sent to Last.fm here and my guess is that's because they use tags Author and WM/AlbumTitle instead of the tags Artist and Album. Could something be done about this?

[yagood]

That was a busy, busy month for me New version is out, check out first page. Let me know if I forgot about any request (except "excluded folders" feature - I still remember about it - it'll be included in the next version).

So, I'm the only one with this problem? How do I solve it?

[lingenfr]

It still does not report Digitally Imported Radio, Shoutcast or Icecast. I am assuming it does not report any streaming except last.fm. Everything else seems to work. Hopefully this will take care of the crashing.

Hmm... this is weird. Are you sure that you have proper username/password set in xmp-scrobbler configuration window? Could you paste log file contents with the error here?

No, it doesn't. And I'm not sure if I should support this as it's not recommended in the Audioscrobbler protocol specification:

"If a user is playing a stream instead of a regular file, do not submit that stream/song."

And that's what Winamp plugin is doing - it doesn't submit anything except regular music files. What are your thoughts about this?

Well, actually, I can't guarantee that crashing problem is gone. It happens from time to time on my machine and it's extremely annoying, I know. That's why I've put more debugging info into the log file. If the crash happens for you - just paste last log file contents in this thread or send it to me.

IANAP, but it would seem to me that if those stations can display the artist and title in XMPlay, that could be submitted to last.fm, but I did read the spec. My thought is that if we wanted to follow the rules we would be using Windows Media Player. Maybe thats just me.

I have been uploading my DrWatson info, is that doing any good or should I stop? What logs should I send/post when it crashes and to where?

Of course it can be submitted if XMPlay fills artist and title fields properly. I'm only saying that streams shouldn't be submitted according to the specification. I'll have to think about that if it makes any sense to implement support for streams...

Did you have a crash with the new version? I've been listening to music for a couple of hours today and no crash so far for me. But that of course doesn't mean that bug is fixed. So check if you have xmp-scrobbler.txt file in your XMPlay directory. If not, that would be weird (and also a bug). If yes, just paste a few last lines from it so that I could figure out at which point it crashed. Oh, and DrWatson info is useful too.  If you would want to send it by e-mail, send it here: yagood@o2.pl. TIA.

No, the new version has not crashed. It seems to be doing a lot of 'track to short stuff' on tracks that are not too short and then just dieing. To be clear, I start a playlist of properly tagged ogg files, all of which are more than 30 seconds. The log says the first track is too short and then nothing. It looks like the plug-in dies and never tries to submit again. Here is my log that shows a couple of attempts.

In between the "Track is too short" messages, I closed and reopened XMP. No difference. I rolled back to the previous version and it worked fine with the same files. I rolled forward again and got the same thing. Immediately upon launching the file, one "Track is too short" and then nothing. Let me know what I can do to help. I have time to do more testing.
