Description

This component fetches Last.fm playcounts and first played/last played dates as you listen. A database is used to store the data so your files are not touched.

This does not scrobble so you'll need another component for that. It's recommended that you use foo_scrobble.

Additionally, you can also love/unlove tracks.

Usage

Info about usage is to be found on Documentation page

Notes

Although this Component shares the same name with a previously released version for foobar2000 1.4+, previous settings/data will not be preserved if upgrading.

Also there is no support for artist title formatting. All lookups / storage are based on $lower($meta(artist,0) - %title%) with no consideration for album tags. This generally means the numbers will match anything you see on Last.fm track pages/charts but you won't get the album stats you get from diving deeper in to your Last.fm Library.
