MusicBee Wishlist / Refresh scrobble data

« on: July 15, 2022, 12:43:29 PM »

Last.fm allows users who pay for pro to change the metadata of previous scrobbles.

This poses a problem when using musicbee since it goes through and saves(/caches?) data only one time.

Would be nice for it to force a new refresh of the saved data with the click of a button

Mine hasn't uploaded a single artwork either, and I played music for well over 6 hours.

I think the better solution would be to just let us choose which 296 album arts to use, since that would also avoid discord flagging our accounts with excessive api calls (deleting old artwork to upload new ones). Less risk, less unpredictability.

Totally agree with this suggestion. It would be great to somehow be able to choose only specific albums to have art on.

I noticed it wasn't uploading album art, so I restarted both Discord and Musicbee. A few minutes pass and I look at the developer page and it seems to have uploaded the musicbee assets again (play, pause, icon etc) and still no album art. Should be noted all my art is embedded in the .flac files but I dont think that should matter



Its uploading albums now too

My hopes are that the plugin works now.

Oh yeah I see the play/pause/stop/mbicon assets on the developer page. No album art uploaded yet but I guess it takes time with the delay. Thanks for the help

By any chance, could it be that you have not enabled 2-factor authentication for your discord account? If so please enable it and try again

I activated 2FA and I can find the method now, with the long string following it. Anything else I should do now?

Could you do the steps mentioned in https://github.com/sll552/DiscordBee/issues/92#issuecomment-956630886

I guess I need to start a support Discord server 

I wouldn't mind helping out on discord, would perhaps solve this quicker (I hope it's solveable)
But I did your instructions, but the thing is I opened all .ldb files but none of them had a ".mfa" function, just "MFA_WARNING"

Ok thats interesting, because that should be the folder where discord saves some state, including the auth token the plugin needs to upload the assets.

Could you make the window a little bigger for the last command, because the path for "--user-data-dir" is the interesting part?

This is as big as I was able to make it, hope it helps:

Please take a look at https://github.com/sll552/DiscordBee/issues/92#issuecomment-956312241

I tried it on Canary with a different account and it still didn't work. I might try to reinstall Discord, and/or my laptop later.

I ended up giving it a shot. I played a track but even after 15 minutes the artwork hasn't been uploaded as an asset (because it's still not there on the developer page and no image shows up on Discord).
I tried manually uploading an image instead and it indeed didn't appear immediately, however I was able to see the manually uploaded image around 5 minutes after.

I'm wondering if it's because I have the album art embedded into the file and not actually as a file?

Did the upload of the basic assets work? Do you see the logo, play, pause, ... icons on the developer page? Because only if those are present the cover uploads will start.

Nope, there are no assets at all for me.

Yes, unfortunately I had less time to work on it than expected.

But nonetheless I am happy that version 2.0.0 was just released and includes the album upload and some bugfixes. You can download it at  https://github.com/sll552/DiscordBee/releases/tag/v2.0.0

Congrats on the release! I'll give it a try later today.

I am working on getting album covers supported using your own discord app. The basics are working but there are some major limitations on Discords side, mostly because this si not intended for automation.

My plan is to have a working version next week which will allow the use of the plugin with your own discord app id and it will handle the last ~300 albums that have been played, the oldest covers will be overwritten when the limit is reached, so you should never notice anything. I will provide a guide on how to setup the discord app and what the limitations are when I have finished implementing what I have planned.

Awesome, really looking forward to it!
