Wrong last.fm scrobbling

Kincior opened this issue · comments

The player scrobbles track artist as album artist instead of scrobbling actual album artist as album artist. (if that makes sense)

Notice how the artist names are different? "Azaleh" has an entry in Last.fm but not "Azaleh & Echo Map". You should retag the file to make it just "Azaleh" to fix this issue or add an entry yourself. Last.fm sees these as 2 different artists; "Azaleh & Echo Map" being unknown.

@HilloBerries Thank you for pointing that out. I think it also would not make sense to scrobble the album artist. It's a scrobble per track, so using the track artist makes the most sense.

Adding an entry wouldn't make sense becuase the album was made primarily by one person, not the two of them. It is taking me to a blank page because dopamine is scrobbling "Azaleh & Echo Map" as album artist(s) instead of just "Azaleh". The file is also tagged properly. I am coming from MusicBee where this is not an issue.

I hope this will help you understand what I mean.

@Kincior Thank you for the extra info. I'll check out what Musicbee does. I believed it was logic to use track artist to scrobble but if I'm wrong, I'll gladly correct that :)
