Scrobble Last.fm from Deezer not working

Hi @Lucelia.Mascarenhas,

It is possible to link your Deezer account to your Scrobble Last FM account from a computer/laptop using this link:

https://www.deezer.com/account/share

You should see the Scrobble as the option on the right.

As far as I remember, Deezer’s internal scrobbling option wasn’t working correctly around that time and was simply lagging several hours with submitting the scrobbles to your Last.fm account, so probably it was coincidence that it started working for you again after reinstalling. This lagging occurs from time to time, and the only thing you can do in this case is wait.

I can confirm that the internal scrobbling option of the Deezer web player works again, also with the same quirks as before, i.e. not submitting the ampersand symbol in artist and track names and only scrobbling after a track has ended, not after 50% of the track length. Using their old Windows 10 app will also scrobble then, probably just like their mobile apps as well. I don't know if their new beta desktop app also uses the internal scrobble option then or not, as I cannot test it.

Scrobbling works again, thanks! And I always liked that you don’t have to wait for 50% of the track, you can capture an unlikable song in the library and know what to never return to.

There is no scrobble through the android app, when will that return?

Webplayer seems to scrobble again. So I'll be back with my subscription next month.
Thanks guys.

Oh and your webplayer is really much much nicer than on spotify, so keep that good work up here.

@Flo.Deezer @Anja @Rafael. -- Excellent that scrobbling works again. Thanks for fixing it!! Also Jon @Maddieman from Last.fm, thanks for supporting the work. 👏 I have only tried the web player so far, and I hope it is already okay on the mobile and desktop as well.

Now that the topic is still fresh, I would like to bring your attention to the fact that the current implementation of the Last.fm Scrobbling API at Deezer is quite rudimentary. To my best understanding it should not be a complex API to follow properly. Please see (and all: vote!) this topic that I raised about a year ago: https://en.deezercommunity.com/ideas/324. Thanks a lot.

No, It still don't work for me since mid october. I have tried everything :

  • I checked if the Deezer web player is connected to my Last.fm account in its settings: it is. ( and It not appears in the settings of the beta desktop !)
  • The Deezer web player is listed as a connected app in my Last.fm applications settings.
  • I even tried a hard refresh of my Deezer and Last fm page in my browser (firefox).

But no scrobbles at all...😐 I'm tired
