I can't get the mainstream-o-meter to work either. Bah. Managing to scrobble on the boyfriend's computer (am using it for university work) but I think the Zen Micro won't be able to scrobble ever. Bah.

The mainstream thing is flaky. If if doesn't work within 20 seconds, kill it.

emil.y, see this: http://www.last.fm/group/Zenses

Leee, Monday, 12 January 2009 02:12 (fifteen years ago) link

Ah, I'd had a look at a thread by the guys from that group that someone helpfully posted (was it you?), but the Micro seemed to have no hope. It still looks a tad dubious, shall have to google the PlaysForSure firmware thing and see what that's all about...

emil.y, Monday, 12 January 2009 02:23 (fifteen years ago) link

Nah, that wasn't me. I've got a Creative player too, but I haven't tried it because you need to work the scrobble magic through Win Media Player, and I'm like, as if.

Leee, Monday, 12 January 2009 02:43 (fifteen years ago) link

my eclectic score was 650. not very impressive I guess.

pfunkboy, thanks for the funk, played like half of it so far and most of it was heavy and awesome I will admit.

sonderangerbot, Monday, 12 January 2009 03:03 (fifteen years ago) link

really enjoyed the funk compilation. Except being reminded of how awful Betty Davis is!

Yeah I'm rubbish with album covers too. Even ones that I played from.

Pfunkboy Formerly Known As... (Herman G. Neuname), Monday, 12 January 2009 19:08 (fifteen years ago) link

Here is my last.fm dream: I would like the ability to merge songs. For example, I have a ton of plays of "Perfect Exceeder" and a few plays of "(Perfect) Exceeder". Since I am obsessed with my stats I want to be able to rename the latter to match the former so my starts accurately represent the number of times I listened to the song. of course, last.fm as always been restrictive on the ability to edit your stats, and I suppose some cheaters (I don't understand the compulsion to make up stats) will make it so that they have 1000000000000 plays of one song in particular or something. Anyway, I would love that.

miss precious perfect (musically), Monday, 12 January 2009 19:22 (fifteen years ago) link

or you could just tag properly ;)

Pfunkboy Formerly Known As... (Herman G. Neuname), Monday, 12 January 2009 19:31 (fifteen years ago) link

Do any of you guys add parentheticals to live tracks? like, beyond the call of duty? (venue, city, date)

909090909 Rivethed Brikkchin Reverk now DANZ (Mackro Mackro), Monday, 12 January 2009 19:38 (fifteen years ago) link

I add a "live" tag to the genre, and I put infos in the comment.

Snowballing, Monday, 12 January 2009 19:45 (fifteen years ago) link

@musically: seconded! I have some 300 'Caretaker' tracks, but somehow they didn't merge with my 800 'The Caretaker' tracks. Shouldn't be that hard.

Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 12 January 2009 21:34 (fifteen years ago) link

Usually band names do merge but not track names

Pfunkboy Formerly Known As... (Herman G. Neuname), Monday, 12 January 2009 21:39 (fifteen years ago) link

I've been having a problem with "Hercules & Love Affair" not merging with "Hercules and Love Affair"

rev, Monday, 12 January 2009 22:17 (fifteen years ago) link

last.fm should allow some sort of community-based merge suggestion box... sorta like wiki for its music database, to fix things like band name merges, song name merges, etc. They wouldn't have to charge for it.

That said, last.fm does have rules for converting band names. I notice when I had Ringö Shéna as an artist, last.fm scrobbler would auto-convert it to 椎名 林檎. So you figure if they could do that with all of 椎名 林檎's alternate romaji, they could easily do a "Hercules & Love Affair" <--> "Hercules and Love Affair" type thing. :-/
