As already explained in this forum conversetion: http://redmine.audacious-media-player.org/boards/2/topics/934 I would like to request the re-enablement of scrobbling to libre.fm.

Since Scrobbler 2 is introduced, we are unable to scrobble to libre.fm anymore, which is also a free software project, so it would be cool if Audacious would continue to support it, as it did before.

According to the last post by Luís Picciochi in the forum conversation, it seems like libre.fm also supports 2.0 API, so this should be feasable.

Thank you very much!

There seems to already exist a patch for this, but I don't know how to compile it. Is it of any use? Could it be integrated officially?

Are there any plans to do this? I have recently been wondering about scrobbling again and currently Audacious seems to be the best music player for me, but this issue stops me. I am not comfortable with Last.FM ToS/privacy policy as they collect more data of me than I think they need such as "other demographic information, such as gender, job information, and postal code."

Everything I could found about Audacious and Libre.FM (nowadays the main instance of GNU FM https://gnu.io/fm/ ) is 5 years old like here, the patch link is broken (ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED) and the same link is at https://git.gnu.io/foocorp/librefm/wikis/Clientsaudacious .
