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 have tried to unlink/link the last.fm account and log out/log in multiple times, but no avail... Listened to multiple songs in a row, none of them got scrobbled. Also tried from mobile and the desktop app, none of them work. I seriously hoped I found an alternative for Spotify that's worth the money but it does not seem to be a seamless transition... 😞

Hello,
Yes, I've seen the answers 🙂 I have listened to full songs and have not seen them scrobbled even after multiple minutes. Today it seems to work (from mobile), will keep an eye on it using multiple platforms in the coming days. Thanks!

@Rafael. Can you please confirm if scrobbling while being offline is not supported by Deezer? I have tried this as well and when I came back online it didn't push my offline listening history to Last.fm.

Having issues with the desktop app as well, it's scrobbling tracks with a huge delay (more than an hour) and even does things randomly: skipped track has been scrobbled, a track has been scrobbled 6 (!) times even though I've listened to it once (see https://pasteboard.co/HuUwiRq.png) 😞

Hi @Kornél Muhi, I'm not sure if it's possible to scrobble while being offline, perhaps LastFM can answer this question? Have your reinstalled the desktop app?

Hi @Rafael. This is a question to Deezer whether their app is capable of doing it 🙂 Other players like Groove and (now) Spotify are able to do that. Regarding the desktop app - no, why would I have reinstalled it?

I suggested reinstalling to see if it could be something with the app. Scrobble is a LastFM feature and it's always good trying everything to see where the issue comes from.

At the moment the internal scrobbling option of Deezer seems to be broken, it only scrobbled the first track for me using their web player, then nothing, then after about half an hour the second track I played, but with three duplicates, so something is definitely wrong.

You could try to use external scrobbling apps supporting Deezer in the meantime, e.g. the Last.fm web scrobbler browser extension for their web player. I think the official Last.fm Android app can also scrobble Deezer if you enable it in its settings.

My last.fm account is tied to the account deezer, but recently the tracks began to scrobble in a few hours, the listening time does not match, the songs go one by one with an interval of about a minute (with a duration of 3-4-5-6-7 tracks minutes). The problem is present in both the mobile application and the desktop.

Deezer was not updated (The latest available version is used everywhere). Please, fix it!
