Bug#813940: forked-daapd: Fails to scrobble plays to lastfm

Sat Feb 6 21:47:28 UTC 2016

Package: forked-daapd
Version: 22.0-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

I played some songs and checked my lastfm profile

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I followed the instructions to put my lastfm credentials into a temporary file
which would enable forked-daapd to obtain a lastfm session key when it started
up. 

   * What was the outcome of this action?

The log file (attached) shows that forked-daapd obtained a lastfm session key,
but none of my plays have been scrobbled.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I expected each played track to be scrobbled, either as it finished, or every
hour, or something.

Kind regards,

Chris

	# scan time. By default .db and .ini are ignored.
	# Disable startup file scanning
	# When forked-daapd starts it will do an initial file scan of your
	# library (and then watch it for changes). If you are sure your library
	# never changes while forked-daapd is not running, you can disable the
	# initial file scan and save some system ressources. Disabling this scan
	# may lead to forked-daapd's database coming out of sync with the
	# library. If that happens read the instructions in the README on how
	# to trigger a full rescan.
