Raw Blame History

Vrobbler Project

Overview

Vrobbler began humbly enough as a way to use Jellyfin's webhook to keep track of the shows and movies I was watching. More specifically, I broke my ankle a few days after Christmas in 2022 and spent the next four months very slowly recovering after surgical repair. So once I had the webhook working, and scrobbling videos, it was only a matter of time till I expaned it to mopidy to replicate LastFM. Then I added board games, books via KoReader, sports events, podcasts … it just keeps going. Vrobbler is now a sort of Frankenstein's monster of scrobbling an entire life.

I am still unconvinced I can keep this going, but being able to scrobble org tasks, Todoist tasks, web pages I've read and trails I've hiked has turned out to be sometimes cathartic and sometimes functional as I try to remember when I did a thing.

This is the preferred method at this time. Also, the Book model implements a `find_or_create` classmethod which is an example of an interface we can use for other data models to get metadata in a way that provides easy testing, bulk fetching and simple saving.

TODO [A] Fix koreader scrobble imports to use DST properly   vrobbler personal bug books imports

  • Note taken on [2025-09-25 Thu 10:37] \\ This may already be fixed … need to check.
  • Note taken on [2025-02-25 12:34] \\ The page data has the canonical date something was read in it, but it seems to be an hour off. I traced this back to being off during DST, so we just need the importer to be aware of whether a user is using DST or not and roll back an hour for part of the year. Also, we'd need to adjust any old scrobbles that took place with DST off to roll them back by an hour.

DONE [A] Fix bug where podcast scrobbling creates duplicate Podcast   project vrobbler scrobbling podcasts bug personal

Rather than pick up an existing Podcast using the podcast title in the mopidy file name, Vrobbler creates a new podcast with no enriched data. Not a big deal for my use as the volume of podcasts I listen to makes manual fixes easy. But it's annoying.

DONE [A] Add RSS feed lookups to podcasts   vrobbler personal feature podcasts

  • Note taken on [2025-10-14 Tue 10:08] Turns out the Podcast plugin for mopidy does a pretty good job of showing the latest file without having to scroll the bottom using only Muse to not parse the podcast title name. BUT, now we're getting urls like this: https://nsf.libsyn.com/rss#77e01251-cb20-4609-b577-d48e985d2e7b This is great, because there's more context there, but it has to read out of the RSS feed. We should add a check in the podcast util to sniff out the file referenced in the # in that url and populate the info from there. This should actually be much more reliable than the current state of the podcast lookup which depends on the file to be name properly.

DONE [A] Jellyfin, bandcamp tracks from Mopidy create duplicate music tracks   bug scrobbling music

Effectively, any track that comes in without a MusicBrainz ID does some funky lookup where it doesn't find a track without an MB id and the track title / artist combination and creates a new track every time. This has to be cleaned up by condensing the duplicated tracks into the original proper track.

But it opens a bigger question about how much MB id should the drive the app lookup. If it can't be depended on to exist from all sources, it really can't be canonical. Instead, the combination of track title / artist is really the best we can do. Last.fm also has this problem, where it doesn't know about albums and definitely does not know or care about MB ids.

DONE Add a "stop_timestamp" so we don't rely on content length   improvement scrobbling

CLOSED: [2023-04-02 Sun 23:58]

Essentially, we currently have the timestamp as when the content began scrobbling and then calculate the finish time from the length of the content. This works pretty well because we know how long most things are.

But in some cases, sports events or long podcasts, we may start mid-way through an event or finish halfway through but still want to mark it as done. In these cases, knowing the finish time could be useful, especially when interfacing with other scrobblers which may have different definitions of when a scrobble finishes or started.

This is actually going to be moot because we can import from LastFM, and web-scrobbler integrates well with LastFM. The only thing to think through here now is what to do with all the garbage web-scrobbler sometimes pushes to LastFM from Youtube (all videos get pushed, sigh).

If we play music from Jellyfin and the track reaches 90% completion, the scrobbling goes crazy and starts creating new scrobbles with every update.

The cause is pretty simple, but the solution is hard. We want to mark a scrobble as complete for the following conditions:

  • Play stopped and percent played beyond 90%
  • Play completely finished

But if we keep listening beyond 90, we should basically ignore updates (or just update the existing scrobble)

DONE [B] Allow scrobbling music without MB IDs by grabbing them before scrobble   improvement

Maloja does this cool thing where artists and tracks get recorded as the top track of a given week, month or year. They get gold, silver or bronze stars for their place in the time period.

I could see this being implemented as a separate Chart table which gets populated at the end of a time period and has a start and end date that defines a period, along with a one, two, three instance.

Of course, it could also be a data model without a table, where it runs some fun calculations, stores it's values in Redis as a long-term lookup table and just has to re-populate when the server restarts.
