LastScrape GUI (beta)
LastScrape is a program that takes your scrobbles from
last.fm and lets you save them to your computer or push to another service, like
libre.fm.
This is version 0.0.6 of the lastscrape GUI.
Announcements
2011-06-16: Using last.fm API via the lasttolibre project. Development is now done on Gitorious, with a bug tracker at the
Foocorp's tracker. (Github still works though.) Version 0.0.6 released.
2011-03-28: Moved to Github. Version 0.0.5 released: fixed a bug caused by a recent last.fm update.
Quick Guide
Windows
- Lastscrape does not work unless you disable the “Hide real-time listening information” option in your last.fm configuration. So, disable it before scraping. In other words, your profile must be public.
- Download the latest Windows package from github.
- Extract it somewhere.
- Run lastscrape.exe and follow the instructions.
- Tell me how it went! Please don't forget this step for the beta.
If the program window doesn't show up (you get a message about missing libraries - please mail me the exact wording of the message), run the vcredist_x86.exe program included in the package and try again.
If you don't trust pre-built binaries from some random guy on the internet, follow the “Other systems” guide below.

Notes
- The GUI version is slower than the command-line script when reading a file that was already downloaded. This is because of the cute editable table.
