Description johannesmyth 2012-02-04 20:06:51 UTC

Version:           2.5.0 (using KDE 4.8.0) 
OS:                Linux

When the last song of an album or the first song of the next album is long (7 minutes or more), the scrobbler ignores either, despite the "playing now" in the profile page.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Pick two songs longer than 7 minutes from different albums
2. Play till the end
3. See one of them not scrobbled
4. Rage

Actual Results:  
Long songs being ignored

Expected Results:  
All songs must be scrobbled regardless

Using phonon-backend-gstreamer; didn't test with the VLC backend.

Amarok also doesn't send the "playing now" data when two long songs from the same album are played consecutively (both are scrobbled; one unnoticed). Tried to start over with new config files and a new database (rm -rf ~/.kde4/share/apps/amarok) to no avail.

StatSyncing: ChangeLog and BUG: tags for the final merge

This is a cummulative ChangeLog for my GSoC 2012 project, statistics
synchronization.

Individual commits responsible for the changes are earlier, but under
the same git merge.

FEATURES:
  * Track dragging support in Unique Tracks tab of the Synchronize Statistics action;
    allows you to do a "diff" between collections and transfer missing tracks.
  * Amarok now scrobbles tracks in streams if the stream correctly updates
    meta-data.
  * When scrobbling to Last.fm, Amarok announces suggested tag corrections.
  * Ability to scrobble recently played tracks from iPod (and the like) to Last.fm.
  * Synchronization of labels and rating between Last.fm and Amarok collections;
    play count can be synchronized one-way from Last.fm to Amarok.
  * Statistics synchronization between collections, supports rating, first / last
    played time, play count and labels.

CHANGES:
  * Configure Amarok dialog gets new Metadata tab to grab some weight from the
    Collection tab and to configure statistics synchronization.

BUGFIXES:
  * Better Last.fm scrobbling behaviour and error reporting due to rewrite,
    should fix long-standing problems.
  * Update stream meta-data correctly even with phonon-gstreamer back-end.
