Description of problem: Lately when I listened to music in Rhythmbox, it doesn't submit the songs to Last.fm. On rare occasions one song might get submitted though. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhythmbox-0.11.3-5.fc8 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run Rhythmbox and enable last.fm-plugin 2. Listen to music 3. Actual results: No songs gets submitted Expected results: All songs should be submitted and shown on last.fm
I am experiencing this problem as well. The only way I have ever got it to submit songs in the new version was to delete all of rythmbox's settings and reconfigure it, then one song was submitted.

Do they have a new version that isn't broken yet?
Created attachment 296545 [details] output from rhythmbox -D audioscrobbler I have same problem. I attach a debug output.
I saw that rhythmbox 0.11.5-3 introduced an upstream patch to fix this issue, does it work? Is it possible to backport it to F8? This issue is kind of annoying...
rhythmbox-0.11.3-10.fc8 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 8
The upstream patch was actually added in 0.11.4. I'm not sure the patch is going to be quite enough, and we're reworking the last.fm plugin upstream to use the new audioscrobbler APIs. The code should be cleaner, and certainly better in future releases.
I've been testing it for some hours now, on 2 different machines, without noticing a sensible difference, still 1 song out of 10 gets submitted, more or less...

Have been trying rhythmbox-0.11.3-10.fc8 with 10 tunes in the last hour and none were submitted. I have over 8k submitted tracks with an average of 30+ per day... is last.fm filtering updates? The reason I think this might be the case is that other players Amarok, beep and one more that I don't even remember the name of do have the same problem after a while. Resolution hint that may be completely incorrect, educated guess: Maybe there is a problem of timestamps when submitting updates. I believe one can not update last.fm until the update timestamp of the previous tune is expired (old/history.) Maybe month/day have been switched? I am running ntpd and I am always on stratum 2 at least.
What is even worse is that it seems to submit tracks that hasn't been fully listened to (less than 5 second listening and clicking on the next button. This was in "Shuffle" mode.)

I've been testing 0.11.3-11 for a few days now and finally it seems to submit songs fine! Yay!
Indeed it works for me as well now. Thank you!
