About:
Mpdscribble is a lightweight background daemon that scrobbles music playback data from the Music Player Daemon (MPD) to Last.fm. It automatically tracks your listening habits by submitting song information as tracks play, building your music profile without manual intervention. The tool runs efficiently with minimal system resources, making it ideal for headless servers or low-power devices.
Key Features:
  • Automatic scrobbling to Last.fm as music plays
  • Lightweight daemon that runs in the background
  • Supports Now Playing notifications for real-time updates
  • Configurable via simple configuration file
  • Works with MPD's music database for accurate metadata
Use Cases:
  • Scrobbling music from a headless MPD server to Last.fm
  • Building a personal music listening history automatically
  • Tracking music preferences for a home media server
Alternatives:
  • lastfmsubmitd – More general-purpose scrobbler, but less MPD-specific than mpdscribble
  • pyscrobbler – Python-based alternative with similar functionality but different dependencies
