knightendo Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 ok, i decided to sign up for this, and it's apparently linked to my media player, but for some reason the playlist of recent tracks ain't working... as you can see. now, i've had the media player on for the last few hours, and still nothing. when i open the program up, i am scrobbling (or whatever that stupid name is!) but when i click on the "recently played" icon on the left it only brings up the song currently being played. am i missing something?
Noodleman Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I think it takes a while to update when you first sign up.
knightendo Posted August 30, 2006 Author Posted August 30, 2006 I think it takes a while to update when you first sign up. can i just say.. OMG at your track list... if i say "ooo-lar!" you should know what i mean lol! my avatar should show i'm a huge fan it really takes as long as this for it to kick off? is it always hours behind then? or is this just at the beginnning? when i go to my profile it says i'm not even playing music!
KKOB Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 make sure you've installed the plug in for what ever music player your using, i have mine for itunes and WMP. then make sure they're turned on and make sure Last.fm is running in the background. might have to restart too-cant do no harm.

knightendo Posted August 30, 2006 Author Posted August 30, 2006 no probs but mine takes between 2 mins and 15 mins to be updated on the last.fm profile or longer for it to be updated on a tertiary site like this. just reset computer, it'd been on for about four hours and still just had "nothing recently played". if it doesn't work now i dunno what is wrong. it correctly identifies tracks on the "now playing" icon, so i dunno what's wrong
conzer16 Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Maybe an uninstall and reinstall is an option? Can't see why it wouldn't work though. It took less than 10 mins for me to scrobble my first track.
knightendo Posted August 30, 2006 Author Posted August 30, 2006 woohoo! thanks guys, a quick uninstall did the trick. thanks for confirming there was something amiss... maybe i shoulda made sure i WASN'T playing the baywatch theme tho when it started scooby-dooing!

Minihobbsch Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Yeah, I thought that I had to sign up to it, just to try out the lastest technology.
knightendo Posted August 30, 2006 Author Posted August 30, 2006 it's scrobbled that first track ok, and it's adding more to the recently played icon, but they're not showing up here yet, but i'll leave it to see if it takes a while. and yeh mini, i know what you mean, it's like a little online gadget... irresistible lol!

Thanks. It does take a little while for the tracks to show.
knightendo Posted August 30, 2006 Author Posted August 30, 2006 strange, the aforementioned baywatch track appeared within seconds of last.fm saying "track scrobbled", i've now gone thru ten more songs and none of them have appeared here yet... :S
