Scrobble Last.fm from Deezer not working

Hello,

I'm new to Deezer and would like to scrobble my tracks using the internal scrobbler, so I've linked my Last.fm account under "Alerts & sharing", but it does not scrobble anything for me.
Anyone else having the same problem?

I have only tried the web player as of now (I can overcome this with a scrobbler extension in the browser), does anyone have experience with scrobbling on the mobile app?

Thanks,
Kornel

I'm checking scrobbling with the web player, and it works for me right now. Keep in mind that Deezer's internal scrobbling submits a scrobble at the end of a track, not while playing it and/or after 50% track length, nor does it show as "Scrobbling now" on your Last.fm profile.

If you use Chrome, you can also install the browser extension Web Scrobbler to scrobble from Deezer, by the way.

Hello there,

Deezer web page stopped scrobbling even though the last fm is connected to profile and scrobbling is turned on

What kind of problem could it be?

@bluezzbastardzz Manual scrobbling is bad way for hundreds of songs =)

@Ana. Thanks for answer. I will wait for information.

@lisp as promised, I've checked and there doesn't seem to be a restriction for scrobbling from a TV. But we are currently having some issues with LG WebOS TVs so that might be one of the effects from that issue. We're keeping track of it, so once it's solved I'll let you know and then we can check if that worked for the scrobbling too, ok? In the mean time, you can try the workaround @bluezzbastardzz suggested 🙂

@lisp

By the way, you can also manually scrobble missing songs to your Last.fm profile either online with the Universal Scrobbler and Open Scrobbler or the free Windows desktop app Last.fm Scrubbler. So if you already have the songs in a list, you should be able to simply copy & paste them.

@lisp it might be that the scrobbling isn't supported from the TV. I will check this and let you know 👍

Sorry, that would be a question for the Deezer developers then if the internal scrobbling option does not work on other hardware devices. At the moment I am using their web player which works as usual. And checking their old Windows 10 app also scrobbles fine.

I have problem with scrobbling today.

Then I listen to music from the Android Deezer App scrobbling works fine. It happens after the song is completed. I have no installed Last.fm application on my phone.

Then I listen to music from the WEB site deezer.com on PC scrobbling works fine. It happens after the song is completed.

But if I listen to music from Deezer App on LG WebOS TV scrobbling does not work. I can see listen history on "Listen history" page in my Deezer profile.

Maybe it is actual problem?

There were obvious problems with Deezer's internal scrobbling on Friday and Saturday, I had similar effects, too, like scrobbling nothing for about 12 hours, then lagging behind the currently playing songs trying to catch up. This was not caused by Last.fm, as far as I know. At the moment everything seems to be working normally for me at least, i.e. the song scrobbles at the end when the next song starts (which is not the usual way of doing it, but this has been the case with Deezer's internal scrobbling option for a long time).

Concerning scrobbling from other devices than the Deezer web player it should work when everything else is working OK. The good thing about the internal Deezer option is that it connects both accounts with their APIs, not in the individual devices, like the new Spotify scrobbling feature by Last.fm. For example the Deezer Windows 10 app also scrobbles when I have enabled it in the web player (don't know about the new beta desktop app though).

This is also true for mobile apps, but I forgot to mention that the official Last.fm for Android app is also capable of scrobbling Deezer on Android devices, check its settings. So if you enable both scrobbling methods on a device, you will probably get duplicate scrobbles on your Last.fm profile, and you have to disable one of the options to prevent that.

@markbarrois and @Andrew Baysha on what device is this happening? have you tried different ones and the same happens?

@lisp I'm not entirely sure about that compatibility but I will look into this for you and let you know. When you list to Deezer on other devices it scrobbles normally?

@bluezzbastardzz you have any input for them? You seem to know more about last.fm than I do 😛

On my Last.fm-profile the same track is scrobbled all over again, though I'm sure I'm not listening to the same track 50 times in a row (I'm obviously scrobbling from Deezer). What is going on & can it be fixed?

In addition to the internal scrobbling option of Deezer which works on all devices including iOS, Android, desktop and Xbox apps as well as the web player you can also install the Web Scrobbler browser extension for Chrome, Opera, Vivaldi, the Chromium beta version of MS Edge and Firefox:

On Android devices you can use several external scrobbling apps which also support Deezer, but not on iOS. See also the official Last.fm FAQ about Deezer Scrobbling on the Last.fm support forum.

Is it possible to scrobble my listening activity from Deezer to my Last.fm account? How do I do it? I have an iOS.
