Best scrobbling tool?

Hello everyone. After getting mpd to work, I just went ahead and started using lastmp+lastfmsubmitd, but I see there is talk here of one called mpdscribble which looks quite popular.

Can someone explain the difference between them for me?

lastmp+lastfmsubmitd aren't able to submit the currently played song and failed to do their work on my station now and then, but I'm not sure the latter is their fault.

I am using scrobby. It's from the same guy who wrote ncmpcpp. It has the same features as mpdscribble, a lot of people I know use that one. I guess it doesn't really matter which you use. But keep you fingers off lastmp+lastfmsubmitd, that one isn't good at all :-)

Of course, mpdscribble is the best scrobbler! (don't believe me, I'm the mpdscribble maintainer)

I don't think "now playing" is particularly important, but I believe lastfmsubmitd is a huge memory hog. This isn't lastfmsubmitd's fault, but it's written in Python, and only that consumes more than 3 MB memory. Compare with mpdscribble (88 kB) or scrobby (173 kB).

Also important: mpdscribble is the only client which supports MPD's "idle" protocol, that means it doesn't consume any CPU power (and battery) unless MPD is changing the song. Even scrobby wakes up the CPU and queries MPD every few seconds, even if nothing is playing.

mpdscribble's performance was sorta flaky for me, but lastmp+lastfmsubmitd kick ass. at least in my experience. if my connection died all the songs played would get submitted the next time i reboot, or log out and log back in. with mpdscribble, sometimes it wouldnt scrobble, for reasons unknown.

I've never heard of such a problem with mpdscribble, and I've been fixing every bug report quickly - I guess you didn't report your problem. Of course, mpdscribble remembers all songs during connection outage, too.

Testing them both out now. I see the difference in RAM usage all righty. The password md5sum idea is pretty cool. I'm assuming this is the right way to get the md5sum:

echo ''password" | md5sum

But it doesn't seem to be scrobbling. Hrmm! How's mpdscribble for getting through nasty http-proxies? I tried starting the process with,

mpdscribble --proxy http://111.111.111.111:8083

But still no success. Any ideas?

echo -n ''password" | md5sum

Without -n, you include the newline character into the MD5 sum. But why are you using the MD5 sum? Some people think the MD5 sum is more secure, but that is a fallacy.

I had a bit of trouble getting mpdscribble to work. Don't know what it was. Using mpdas now and it's great. Last.fm shows now playing, it scrobbles (obviously) and if your offline it caches the songs you've listened to and updates last.fm when you connect again.

Of course mpdscribble does all that too...

i am using lastmp. On Debian, i just installed it, it just asked me for my lastfm username and password when installing. Then it worked without any modifications.
