The native API allows for a lot more data to be submitted with listens that what is possible with scrobbles.

but i tested with lastfm's windows client and it did not send any request to getToken
2016-07-18 20037, 2016
armalcolite
not sure why
2016-07-18 20042, 2016
alastairp
armalcolite: so you have implemented auth.getToken, /api/auth, and auth.getSession?
2016-07-18 20046, 2016
alastairp
right.
2016-07-18 20002, 2016
armalcolite
yup, API is complete
2016-07-18 20014, 2016
alastairp
perhaps it's using an internal API, or perhaps an old version of the API
2016-07-18 20033, 2016
armalcolite
it was working with audacious with the changes that i mentioned in the documentioned

alfie: :) The Last.FM API is mostly being developed for legacy applications. We hope that most new applications/plugins/etc. will use the LB API when submitting to LB.

armalcolite: do you know wireshark?
2016-07-18 20057, 2016
armalcolite
yup
2016-07-18 20011, 2016
alastairp
I would suggest starting wireshark and seeing what requests it makes
2016-07-18 20046, 2016
armalcolite
actually i just keep a server running on one laptop and use the client on the other laptop.
2016-07-18 20010, 2016
armalcolite
use local IP mapping in /etc/hosts of the other PC to access website.
2016-07-18 20040, 2016
alastairp
I recommend you use wireshark because we can't be sure what hostname the windows client is using to access the API
2016-07-18 20055, 2016
alastairp
if you capture all of the traffic you can look
2016-07-18 20019, 2016
armalcolite
oh, i was wondering for a solution to this problem.
2016-07-18 20035, 2016
jwheare
alastairp: i'll try to find out for you
2016-07-18 20037, 2016
armalcolite
And you just reminded me of wireshark, seems good.
2016-07-18 20036, 2016
alastairp
jwheare: thanks. the question we have currently is if the windows app uses the application auth workflow, or something different
since armalcolite don't see the auth.getToken request when he hijacks last.fm with /etc/hosts
2016-07-18 20009, 2016
alastairp
armalcolite: ah! ^ source code
2016-07-18 20013, 2016
jwheare
so i don't know if the official "scrobbler" is even the same code base
2016-07-18 20022, 2016
alastairp
right. it's worth a try
2016-07-18 20030, 2016
armalcolite
i could not get this to work with ubuntu :(
2016-07-18 20045, 2016
armalcolite
so i switched to audacious

alfie: I would hold your horses on that though, as I think the LB db will get wiped at the end of the summer as we have improved on our Last.FM importing in a way that's not really compatible with our current Last.FM imports. :/
2016-07-18 20004, 2016
alastairp
don't worry about getting it working, just take a look at the source code and see if you can work out what auth flow it uses

I spent a good chunk of the week getting all the monetary paper work for last month done, as the Google Code-in invoice submission had a deadline on the 15th (this last Friday).
2016-07-18 20020, 2016

In between that, I also churned out the backlog of meeting notes. Now I just have all the other backlogs to clear…
1. Worked on biz dev shit and minor invoices stuff. Universal finally paid us some money!
2016-07-18 20037, 2016

2. I spent quite a bit of time working on the new MB-VM setup. The latest code-base should produce a working VM on linux or on a Mac. Windows not supported. I’d love to get people to try it and see if it works for them: https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-vm

3. Next week I will finish/test/integrate the search server docker bits and hopefully release a new VM.

I’m off at Borderland this week, continuing a much needed break.
So, this week I was away Thursday to Monday racing electic cars with the university (or trying to). So nothing has gotten done. However, now I'm pretty free :)

in AB I finished most of the work to cache metadata for recordings in the acousticbrainz db
2016-07-18 20031, 2016
alastairp
I started on the part to generate temporary highlevel feature files based on models which are generated through the dataset builder (e.g., Gentlecat's research and our conference paper).
2016-07-18 20039, 2016
alastairp
with these new features we'll be able to better evaluate the accuracy of the datasets that we create, in order to better inform ourselves if we want to include them live into the AB database.

Question to reosarevok: those I'm not sure about, should I reassign those to you and/or set to "decision required"?, actually should I use "decision required" at all?
