#Remove featured artist from lastfm scrobbling (back in new branch build but not fully working)
37 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
hope this feature returns it’s one of cider’s best things
saves a lot of time in editing file names (and cider doesnt even count edited file names so that feature was the only option)
The artist literally get filtered to match the exact song on the lastfm website
You shouldn’t have to change anything
but sometimes apple music has it as Artist 1 & Artist 2
the correct way is to scrobble it as Artist 1, but without the setting it shows as Artist 1 & Artist 2
@rigid tree any solution?
lemme have look
the only thing that can cause this is there being an api error
for it to default to basic stuff
check your log file for lastfm errors
well it seems that some of the songs do have a lastfm correction that has the features artist
the song u showed returns this:
[16:26:55.720] [info] {
name: 'Tatoué',
url: 'https://www.last.fm/music/Sasha+Lopez+&+Ester+Peony/_/Tatou%C3%A9',
artist: {
name: 'Sasha Lopez & Ester Peony',
url: 'https://www.last.fm/music/Sasha+Lopez+&+Ester+Peony'
}
}```
ok managed to get it down with a more compressed version of the api call
[17:39:50.990] [info] {
artist: 'Sasha Lopez',
listeners: '0',
image: [
{ size: 'small', '#text': '' },
{ size: 'medium', '#text': '' },
{ size: 'large', '#text': '' },
{ size: 'extralarge', '#text': '' },
{ size: 'mega', '#text': '' },
{ size: '', '#text': '' }
],
mbid: '',
tags: {
tag: [ '[object]', '[object]', '[object]', '[object]', '[object]' ]
},
name: 'Tatoué - Single',
playcount: '0',
url: 'https://www.last.fm/music/Sasha+Lopez/Tatou%C3%A9+-+Single'
}```
whenever the ci gets fixed if u get that build it should be all good
can you lemme know when it comes out?
oh i also just noticed that together with removing the featuring artist cider stopped removing the - single and - ep
just lookin at how lastfm does things
eventhough a few of the songs with all artists fail to have correct album covers, they do appear to be the correct page on lastfm
and afaik only albums with have the single or ep tags
not the songs
the way lastfm works is very confusing sometimes
a lot there are a lot of pages like 1 & 2 so cider is probably just scrobbling to the one that's most silimar, and since the page exists it just goes to it
the switch that removed feat. artists worked great however that code was done
i remember it that at the start it had a problem with artists that had & or , like tyler, the creator would just scrobble as tyler but later on it was fixed
messaging again so it doesnt get archived
Any updates on this? This was one of my favorite features of Cider, a shame it got removed
exactly really hope it gets fixed soon
