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.

Just stopped my payment!

Me too! Like two days ago. I didn't renew anymore. 3 months wait it too much. It's sad that we had to unsubscribe just because they couldn't fix a small issue. @wfws

Sad news @Joinemm but thanks for letting us know - it's important to pass the info to our developers and decision-makers here at Deezer :v_tone2:

Hi to all,

I had this problem since July or August, Deezer used to be my favourite music streaming service, I installed it to all of my devices since many years now, but I’m not using it anymore since months now, it’s such a shame cause I can’t scrobble some of my fav artists, since they’re not available on more ‘commercial music’ services. 

I jump here (and on LastFM forum...) to see the evolution of this problem every now and again, it seems very weird we’re in November and the problem it’s still not solved… Many users are unhappy 

Just my 2 cents.

Hey @mavarco86 

Really appreciate your feedback, you're right.

I'll forward your comments as well, I hope to have an update on the situation in due course :thumbsup_tone2:

Deezer's internal scrobbling option works again including their desktop and iOS apps. The callback URL to Deezer after authenticating it in your Last.fm account was broken using http instead of https. The workaround recently described in a related thread with installing the HTTPS Everywhere browser extension to fix this issue is not necessary anymore.

Other issues with it still remain of course like not submitting ampersands in artist, album and track titles or not showing "Scrobbling now" in your Recent Tracks list on your Last.fm profile. See the Deezer Scrobbling FAQ on the Last.fm support forum:

FYI: If you try to scrobble the track “34+35” from Ariana Grande’s new album with the internal Deezer option, it will not work due to the known issue with plus signs in artist/album/track names. Workaround is using the Web Scrobbler browser extension or external Android scrobblers like Pano Scrobbler etc., see this thread and the official Deezer scrobbling FAQ on the Last.fm support forum. Of course you can add the missing scrobbles manually afterwards with the related manual scrobbling tools as well.

Thanks for sharing @bluezzbastardzz 

I'm going to add these comments you made to the bug report around scrobbling here. Good news is that our team is actually going for improvements on this in 2021 :thumbsup_tone2:
