It looks like MeCanto doesn't offer last.fm scrobbling support. It would be absolutely perfect to have this. I'd have to give MeCanto a 7 out of 5 if this were able to happen. With that being said, maybe it does have last.fm support, I just don't know how to set it up? It looks like though it is not being recognized through the simple last.fm scrobbler.
So this is my idea I'd like to share..I hope that very soon the app can have last.fm scrobbling support. I know the Rhapsody app is recognized as the default music player in order to get it to scrobble.
edit: It looks like there was another thread almost a week ago that was talking about setting up a "love" track feature for last.fm and it looks like the person who posted the thread was talking like MeCanto is already set up for last.fm scrobbling. I guess if so then this might be better threaded under "question" as a how to get MeCanto to scrobble.
Thanks in advance.

It does have Last.fm Support. On the main support panel after you login click on Settings ---> Account Info ---> External Accounts and click "Activate" next to Last.FM Audio Scrobbler.

I'm speaking of the app. I know how to activate last.fm for the website.
Thanks in advance.

Why would the app scrobble MeCanto when there's already a scrobbler built into MeCanto? Maybe I just don't understand your point. If you really want to scrobble your songs using the last.fm scrobbler app just download Winamp or use Windows Media Player. You should reword your proposal because as it stands your wording indicates that you want last.fm scrobbling support in MeCanto which MeCanto already offers. But since you work as a DJ I assume you mean the PC client? I thought the PC client just uploaded the music and did nothing else.

Why would the app scrobble MeCanto?! Because many other music apps scrobble. Sorry, but I'm confused on what you don't understand. The first part of my paragraph above could sound like I'm talking about the website portion of MeCanto. But I clear that up in my initial post, and my second post
<>
Windows Media Player and Winamp are not an option for my phone. Again, I'm talking about the MeCanto app. I could interpret what you are saying as if it is enabled/activated on my account of the MeCanto website (last.fm support) then it should work through the app on my phone. However, I tried that and it doesn't work. The MeCanto app needs to be supported through the simple last.fm scrobbler app it looks like.
Additionally to make it clear, I am not speaking of the PC Client...not sure what that has to do with me being a DJ. Sorry.
Thanks in advance.

I’m
happy
Once you subscibe in meCanto web account to scrobble service, MeCanto starts to scrobble your songs from web or mobile.
If it's still not working for you check out here http://gs.mecanto.com/mecanto/topics/... -

Nell,
I was guessing that might be the case. But as you see I noted that I had activated the scrobbling on my account settings on the website and it did not scrobble from the app. By saying "mobile" do you mean viewing the "website" from the mobile phone or do you mean the app SHOULD then be doing this?
Thanks in advance.

Oh, you wanted support for the phone app. I understand now :P Sorry I didn't see it mentioned that you were talking about MeCanto mobile.

Allen, what mobile phone are you using? iPhone? Android? Symbian?
I think scrobbling currently only works on the Android and Symbian apps. -

I am having the same issue. I am on the HTC Evo. Mecanto scrobbling does not work from my android phone. Other programs are able to successfully scrobble from my phone.

I am using the Android app with my Droid X phone, Verizon Wireless.

I want to bring this discussion back, at least for myself, and maybe Holly who also posted here that the MeCanto app is not scrobbling for her either. It is still not working for me. I am using the Simple last.fm Scrobbler on my phone and it does not come up as a recognized "music player". Maybe it doesn't work with this scrobbler? Maybe it works with Scrobble Droid instead?

Any help would be much appreciated. It would be perfect for me if the app scrobbled because I've been able to get my library uploaded finally and it is updated as I add new music appropriately. So I feel at this point I'm going to be using this app a lot after I've done my complete test run of its capabilities.
Thanks in advance!

UPDATE: I DL the Scrobble Droid app to try and see if it works with MeCanto since the other one doesn't seem to work and Scrobble Droid isn't scrobbling plays from MeCanto either.

Any update on this? I'm really bummed that last.fm isn't working on this yet. I plan to use MeCanto more and more as I set my Android phone up for the perfect use.

I too would appreciate it if the iphone app would scrobble to Last.fm. If anyone figures out a way, please share it. Thanks.
