Comment and replies on ScrobblePod:
I use iScrobbler, have to manually tell it to scrobble iPod tracks but it works fine.
What's the difference to iScrobbler (which submits iPod tracks just fine)?
I am still confused as to how this scrobbles iPod tracks ^^/ iPods aren't wireless enabled, unless this requires some esoteric hardware accessory or something...
ecable: scrobblepod posts the tracks that you have played on your ipod when you plug it in to the computer. it also posts tracks played in itunes as soon as they are played.
I really miss a decent productmanual here. Or either i'm really stupid :p
I installed ScrobblePod. When i connect my iPod (Nano, not that it matters), ScrobblePod stays on 'Idle'. Any ideas how that come's? I don't need it to scrobble iTunes tracks, that does the last.fm program itself. I just need it to load the songs i listened to on my bike or so.
Any ideas how i can get it to work? Thanks!
This is a very promising beta version. The developer is responsive to user feedback (and documentation is coming). Definitely an app worth watching if you use an iPod and Last.fm.
I also am having a problem with my iPod Nano (1st gen). It's connected, console shows scrobblepod seeing it mount... but no scrobbles. anyone else?
For the most part it works nicely, but this thing has got to have a memory leak. There's no way it could need 200+ MB of real memory.
Nice little app, but how do you get it to scrobble iPod tracks after listening to iTunes? Is that the "Force Srobble" feature.
I am starting to like this app alot. Simple. Does the job cleanly. No fuss.
This currently makes my Mac hang every few tracks/scrobbles.
Comment and replies on Sleep Display:
Great. I've found several solutions that put the display to sleep in 1 minute, but this is the first that works immediately.
This doesn't work for me. I've tried both the widget and the application, and they both put my display to sleep for only a moment before the display comes back on :(
oooops. I've figured out how to make it work...if your 'Put the computer to sleep when it is inactive for...' option in the Energy Saver preference panel is set to 'Never' then Sleep Display won't work. My bad ;) Works great for me now :D
oh my god!! Someone finally figured it out!! Thank you!! :)
Anyone interested in this functionality MUST check out Nocturne (http://osx.iusethis.com/search?q=nocturne) by the Quicksilver people. Instead of turning the display completely off, Nocturne puts your display in 'night mode' which is much less blinding than the normal display with a side effect of looking cool :)
This app currently doesn't support Leopard. People who are looking for this functionality can check out a widget called "Off" ( http://osx.iusethis.com/app/off )
Leopard-compatible app that sleeps the display instantly: Sleep Display Leopard

The homepage URL is not correct... I think it should be http://www.soundspectrum.com/

@ecable: Its a client for last.fm thats designed for use with iPods. Most other clients expect you to submit tracks (or "scrobble") in real time, which an iPod obviously can't do. Some other clients have had some limited iPod support, but didn't work very well in my experience.
And as a last.fm and iPod user, I'm thrilled someone finally made an iPod-centric client.
