The plugin can’t be loaded with rhythmbox v3.0.1. Rhythmbox gives the folloing output when I try to activate the plugin.

$ rhythmbox

It does not work on Ubuntu 12.04…

I used “Last.fm for Rhythmbox – New Style” in Lucid without any problem and I love it. I think it’s an important deficiency for Rhytmbox 2.96 and Precise. Please fix this problem as soon as possible.

Best Regards

Still not working in Ubuntu precise / Rhythmbox 2.96 (and the standard scrobbler skips tracks :/ )

Hey man, great job with this plugin.

I had it working fine, but I upgraded to 12.04 (precise pangolin) now with rhythmbox 2.96 and the plugin stopped working. I repeated the steps above and nothing. I suppose the main problem is that “New Style Last.fm Scrobbler” doesn’t appear in the rhythmbox’s components list.

Please let me know if theres is something I should do. Thanks in advance.

hallo jürgen,
gibt es schon eine version deines programmes für ubuntu 12.04? auf der vorherigen version funktionierte es einwandfrei, jetzt ist es wieder weg…

chris — Thu, 26 Apr 2012 16:51:40 +0000

hey there,

first of all, thank you so much for your work and the great plugin! :)

today, i’ve installed Ubuntu 12.04 final version (which war released today),
it comes with rhythmbox 2.96, so your apt-repo does not work for me and now :(

have you planned to port your plugin to this newer version? would have been very nice!

Cheers,
Chris

In reply to Alexandre Provencio.

I probably should make a stand-alone plugin package for this…
The current patch (v3t) applies to Rhythmbox 2.95 with a little fuzz. So yes, it should work with that version.

(Actually, I do have a Ubuntu precise repository. I just have to update it for the latest Ubuntu builds of Rhythmbox 2.95).

By: Alexandre Provencio

Alexandre Provencio — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 21:48:53 +0000

Why this is not packaged with rhythmbox-plugins yet?

Is there a way I can make it work with the RB version below?

Thank you very much for this plugin, it’s one of the reasons I stick with Rhythmbox. I just wish it was in Rhythmbox by default. I haven’t read the full comment thread in case it’s already been asked, but why isn’t this the case? Excellent work, thanks again!

By: Alexandre Provencio

Alexandre Provencio — Fri, 27 May 2011 12:54:17 +0000

Very nice app. Maybe you could think about developing a plugin to sync last.fm loved tracks with rhythmboxdb. I use the VandelayIndustries plugin for Songbird in order to do this, and I still have not found any solution that actually works for RB.

See ya

You should make something like this for Banshee.
I terribly hate the Banshee scrobbler. But I prefer Banshee over Rhythmbox.

By: Joey

Joey — Wed, 25 May 2011 03:37:49 +0000

Thanks a lot.
I love how you’ve been updating this since 2007. I thought this was abandoned at first, but then I scrolled down to see Updates. Year 2011 was promising.
Thank you. :)

Hi, this sounds great, I would love to try it out, I’ve followed the process through many times yet can never find the plugin when I’m finished. Don’t know what’s wrong.

Really nice work I love your plugin! Currently your package is replace by the rhythmbox from officicial Ubuntu Maverick repo though. Can you fix that?

By: DrDamage

DrDamage — Tue, 28 Sep 2010 22:15:03 +0000

Actually you CAN love a track from within Rhythmbox, using only the last.fm plugin that is shipped with Rhythmbox by default. All you need to do is to, while listening to the track you want to love of course, click the last.fm button in the left panel, and then click on the heart that appears in the toolbar…voila!

PS: Forgive me if this was already mentioned in any of the previous comments.

In reply to Yunkwan. Yep, later today. Like mentioned above, you can tell apt to only upgrade rhythmbox if there's a new version in my repository by adding the following to /etc/apt/preferences:

Ubuntu repo just pushed an update, would you update this rhythmbox in your PPA?

By: Jürgen Kreileder

Jürgen Kreileder — Wed, 12 May 2010 09:27:15 +0000

In reply to Dzvinka.

This looks like you’re trying to apply the patch to an already patched directory (“The next patch would create the file plugins/scrobbler/Makefile.am, which already exists!”, …).

Technically you don’t have to build the plugin yourself as there are pre-built packages for Ubuntu 10.04 (both i386 and amd64), just follow the instructions above.

Dzvinka — Wed, 12 May 2010 09:07:40 +0000

Hi, Jürgen! Thanks for the great plugin, but unfortunately when I was trying to run patch on my i386 Ubuntu 10.04 Rhythmbox 0.12.8 – I got the following error:

Great plugin! I’ve used this every time I go through a Rhythmbox-as-my-music-player phase, and it works wonders! :D

Btw, I translated your article into Spanish in my blog

thanks again for the plugin! :)

Followed the instructions above to install on a Lucid 64bit. When I open the “Update Manager”, Rhythmbox is listed as available for update but is greyed out and can’t be selected or upgraded. When open Synaptic and try to mark Rhythmbox for upgrade, I get the following dialog box…
