web-scrobbler VS finale

If Web Scrobbler states on their website that these UK radio stations should be supported, you should check the Issues section of their GitHub page and write a report if there is something wrong:

The desktop scrobbler doesn't support Bandcamp scrobbling. To scrobble from Bandcamp you'll need to install the Web Scrobbler browser extension.

Nope, the desktop scrobbler only works with media players (iTunes/WMP). You can use the web player + web scrobbler combo if you'd rather not connect your Spotify account.

Posting this in case any one else runs in to the same problem. I found a discussion about this issue on Web Scrobbler's github page: https://github.com/web-scrobbler/web-scrobbler/issues/3462 Seems to be happening to other people and not yet resolved.

Webscrobbler

I find I use Web Scrobbler to listen to a wide variety of radio. You can discover new artists in volume that way.

For client side last.fm support the site could be added to this web-extension.

assuming the UI expresses meta data in an easily scrapable way.

I just came across an app called Finale that enablees this. It's pretty basic and the UI isn't great, but it links your Last.fm and Strava accounts and you can see which songs you listened to for each run along with some basic stats.

Finale for last.fm

There's also https://finale.app (https://web.finale.app) which I haven't tried though, but here it was said that it can do charts (possibly app-only).

There are scrobblers that will "listen" to what's playing and scrobble appropriately. Though obviously those won't work if you're wearing a headset, and it may be hit or miss with the other sounds going on. https://finale.app

I’ve tried to keep my scrobbles accurate over the years, but it’s hit and miss with Apple Music + HomePods. Finale is great for manually scrobbling vinyl and album plays that didn’t sync from the HomePods, but I don’t always remember…

Finale allows you to do both artist and album collages for any date ranges! https://finale.app

Sorry for replying this late !

I actually didn’t know the Discogs app supported scrobbling, I currently use an open source app called “Finale”[1] that does the job pretty well. As soon as I can get my hands on a RaspberryPi, I have plans to make the whole process automatic.

I have a rather convoluted setup for achieving just this using last.fm, Finale and SongShift. It is really handy being able to pull stuff into my library automatically. The root problem as to why Apple(or anyone else for that matter) hasn't done this tends to be that radio metadata is often shit, or non-existent. While they could identify the songs using Shazam, that would require a fair amount of computing power to do at scale, and those services aren't infallible. Shazam and ACR(which powers Finale) doesn't identify everything. It does a reasonably good job, but wouldn't be perfect relative to people's expectations.

Finale (free - works similarly to the official app).
