Uh, first post here and a rather embarassing question... 

I can not get the Last.fm plugin in Media Jukebox to DO anything.  How the heck do you listen?
Looked at all the options, tried to double click it, drag it here or there, right click, kick it - nothing.
Yes, I put in my last.fm user name and pass.  But I have no idea how to get the thing to start.  ?
Nothing in the forum or the wiki seems to tell me how to work it.  Just want to make it play music.

See, I told you it was embarassing.

Welcome to the forums!

The last.fm MC plugin only does submissions.

Once armed with user name and password, you shouldn't need to do anything else.
Just play some tracks from your library and so long as you don't hit the fast forward option, before 50% has played, the plugin will submit the track to last.fm and you should see it appear in your recently played list on your last.fm homepage.

The "Buddy" system can be quite neat. Set up a key combo in the plugin options and then, when you press it, you get a pop up box with a list of your last.fm friends' recently played tracks. Ones that you have in your library have a smiley face beside them, and double clicking one of those entries should begin playback of that track.

Thanks very much, Marko.

I was trying to make last.fm play in Jukebox, like a shoutcast stream.  (Handy for me because I use NetRemote to control Jukebox).

Time to give the plugin another whirl and see what she'll do!

You're welcome.
A 'heads up' if you're using MC 13, there's a bug in the buddy system that causes MC to crash.

Just wondering, do you need the plugin open in the window to make it work, or does it submit if you browsing your library?

could someone link me to the thread where to download the newest last.fm plugin? i searched for it but oculd not find it. i saw the last fm auto dj plugin, but was pretty sure there was just a regular old last.fm plugin that could work with MC14...?

[JimH]

It's included with MC14 (also MC13, I believe).  Go to Plug-in Manager, Interface Plug-ins, choose Last.FM, and show.  It will appear in the tree under Services and Plug-ins.
