At the moment my plugins doesn't need neither LastFM nor AudioScrobbler/SlimScrobbler plugins to work. If the functionality that I need for Custom Scan (similar artists) or TrackStat (tracks played) is implemented in either James plugins or the official plugins, I might change this so these plugins are required to use that functionality in TrackStat/Custom Scan. But as long as this isn't the case, TrackStat/CustomScan will contain its own implementation of these things. Just as information: - The "tracked played" event James purposed would make it possible to remove some logic from TrackStat that today is used to decide if the play count and last played time attributes on a track should be updated or not. It would be great if this functionality was moved into an official plugin as not only iTunes Update and TrackStat could use this, it would also be great if the standard SqueezeCenter handled play counts and last played time this way. An of course the new official Audio Scrobbler plugin would also be able to use this functionality. - The "similar artists" functionality provided through Custom Scan has nothing to do with AudioScrobbler/LastFM plugins besides the fact that they are using the same data source (lastfm.com). So I would imagine that this functionality will be implemented in CustomScan also in the future. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38845 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
