Could you add support for MixZing and MixZing lite?

I only use Last.fm and I'm busy with other projects, so I'm afraid not. Sorry.

so you're scrobbledroid's developer and you use last.fm's app?

MixZing is a new music app in the market, it's not another last.fm type service.

Oh sorry, I misunderstood. I Googled MixZing and thought it was a service like
Last.fm that you can submit your listening habits to. Either way, I don't use 
it so
I'm not planning to work on it. The developers of the MixZing app could add 
support
for Scrobble Droid if they wanted to by using the API:
http://code.google.com/p/scrobbledroid/wiki/DeveloperAPI

You might want to suggest that to them.

Thanks.

Does scrobbledroid on Android listen for a specific event when it scrobbles the
existing music player ?

Yes, it listens for three broadcasts from the standard Music player:
com.android.music.metachanged
com.android.music.playbackcomplete
com.android.music.playstatechanged

There isn't enough information in those broadcasts to determine the player state
unambiguously, so after receiving one of those broadcasts Scrobble Droid 
connects to
the music playing service using an undocumented interface to find out its state.
