[QUOTE="jameson_uk, post: 549089, member: 11220"] OK I am getting a bit confused as to the scrobbling in MP:S I get the scobbling side in last.fm where whatever you play is sent to last.fm for them to do their number crunching and turn it into songs you might like. What I don't get is how this is setup in MP. AIUI the audioscrobber plugin handles sending what you are playing back to last.fm. The last.fm plugin works as a replacement of the last.fm client and basically streams files from last.fm. When I am playing music from my collection I am confused though.... I had assumed that the scrobble on /off option was to toggle sending data to last.fm but as far as I can tell this actually is adding tracks to the playlist? If this is the case are these tracks streamed from last.fm or are they local tracks?? Finally am I right to assume that MP will try and download artist pics from last.fm and will use these as the artist thumb over the generated album covers? [/QUOTE]
