Ytmdesktop: Bug: App is not sending album/album artist to Last.fm
I noticed that a track I had listened to this week on my phone with YTM + Scroball app, and GPM desktop player on another device, was being scrobbled differently when I tried out this YTM desktop player. I have a last.fm subscription so I can go in and edit scrobbled metadata and found that the tracks from from YTM desktop were missing album and album artist data. Can that be enabled in the next update? I edited those scrobbles already but can do it again for an example if needed!

Seeing as this is closed, will this not be fixed then, @adlerluiz? :( Just now reinstalled from https://ytmdesktop.app/ to make sure I have the latest and tested, and it's still not registering albums + album artists and populating album versions when it should be single, and other errors. Guess I'll continue to roll with the web scrobbler and the official youtube music PWA so my scrobble history is accurate...

hi @restinginlove, I believe closing this was an accident, but this should be implemented on 1.10

sorry for the inconvenience, I really made the correction and added the album in the scrobbler option but I found out that the library I use for that, does not support album scrobble and there is a pending PR that was never accepted, I am considering making a fork and accepting this PR or manually implement scrobble for Last.FM

I'm repurposing this issue as a bugfix instead of a new feature for now

I did some digging and the reason why album information is not being sent to Last.fm is the scribble npm module is very limited and does not support scrobbling album info. Also the module has not been updated in 6 years and the developer has not done anything on GitHub in 5 years. It would probably be best to switchout the library used for scobbling with something better.
