Scrobbled 3 times

Issue #5 resolved
Former user created an issue

Hi,

Almost always I believe, when I try to scrobble a file, I get prompt an error in the notification area indicating Scrobbled ## tracks / ## errors, where the error number is a multiple of 50.

Here's the log from yesterday:

6/3/2013 7:03:19 PM Scrobbled 
[the first 14 scrobbles here]
6/3/2013 7:03:22 PM 
    There was an internal error. Please retry your request.

6/3/2013 7:03:28 PM Scrobbled 15 tracks / 50 errors

But when I check my last.fm account (some time latter, it's takes like 10min for them to get all there), there was no error… and everything is scrobbled three times.

So I guess this have nothing to do with your app, but last.fm messing up.

Maybe it would work better if RockScrobbler paused for more than 3 seconds before submitting more scrobbles or, even though I don't like it either, not submitting again after a code 16 error.

My player is an iPod Classic, but I also had troubles when scrobbling using Manual scrobble with a local copy of the .scrobbler.log.

I'll be sure to check this case often.

P.S.: Love the app, so small it's almost invisible, just what's needed.

    I have seen this issue myself. I always put it down to a problem with last.fm. I didn't realize that the tracks were actually getting scrobbled though. I have been thinking about increasing the timeout.
