Scrobbled tracks not saving
"Scrobbling now" updates correcty after each track change, but scrobbled tracks are never saved to the last.fm site.

Using Raspbian 8.
There is nothing in the logs indicating a problem, esp. on mpdas' side, as the server returned "ok" ("Scrobbled successfully").
If you want to dig further, you could log the responses sent by Last.fm, however, that would require some manual code edits, e.g. by logging the server's response after this call: https://github.com/hrkfdn/mpdas/blob/master/audioscrobbler.cpp#L177
Like such:
iprintf("%s", _response.c_str());
To be honest, though, I think this is a problem on Last.fm's side, as the server accepted our submission.
This is the response. Not so detailed, unfortunately. But it looks like the scrobble is ignored by the service.

It was filtered by the service (code 1):

Very strange. This happens with every track. Same tracks scrobble fine with mpd-scrobbler.
Huh, that is strange indeed. So it's probably submitting tracks differently. It would be interesting to see and compare what mpdas and mpd-scrobbler are submitting to Last.fm. Maybe a different albumArtist tag?
I discovered that it is when playing tracks over UPnP (Audirvana+ on a Mac) to mpd (Volumio on a RPi) that all scrobbles are returend with scrobbles ignored="1".
If I play the same tracks directly from Volumio, they'll scrobble correctly.
When playing over UPnP the tracks are scrobbled immediately when started (and therefore rejected by last.fm?), but when playing in Volumio they are scrobbled after half(?) of the track as intended. And accepted by last.fm.
Maybe track duration isn't working correctly over UPnP (but for some reason it's working in mpd-scrobbler).
Hi, Any solutions for this issue? I have the same situation on Tidal > UPnP > Moode on RPi
I would need more input to debug this as I don't run this configuration, e.g. captures of what is posted to Last.fm compared to Volumio's communication.
I fixed this issue and added a pull request some time back. However the code I wrote is probably not the nicest. It fixes the UPNP issue however. IIRC: The problem was that mpd does not have all the required information immediately when starting to scrobble, so it has to be queried when available. Furthrmore the track length has to be queried in a different way, otherwise it is reported wrong and the scobbling fails.
I'm trying to solve this with Audirvana and MoodeAudio. My scrobbling worked with Volumio but now it stopped. How do I proceed with your fix?
@frantathefranta I think you can either checkout this version and then add my pull request or checkout the fork in my repository and compile that one.
