ABOUT
-----

 A lua script to send Last.fm scrobbles via Universal Scrobbler web page
 instead of having any local scrobbling code.

 The UniScrobbler script is especially designed to be used with MorphOS's
 Jukebox music player and it can output notifications to Magic Beacon.

 Scrobbling can be disabled and enabled "on the fly".


CONFIGURATION
-------------

 Edit your Last.fm username and password in the config section of the script.
 If you don't have Last.fm account yet, you can join at http://www.last.fm

 I strongly advice that you should have a unique password in use in Last.fm
 if you use this script, because all information is sent unencrypted to the
 3rd party web site and there's no guarantee that it won't be seen by others.

 The config section also contains some output options.

 TCP: device must be mounted for the script. Either enable it in
 S:user-startup or click "Mount" in the requester when it asks about it.


USAGE
-----

 LuaX UniScrobbler.lua SEND <artist> <track> <album>
 - Scrobbles a song information to Last.fm
 - All arguments must be provided, and in correct order

 LuaX UniScrobbler.lua DISABLE
 - Disables scrobbling even if the script is run with SEND arguments
 - State is saved to ENV: and ENVARC: to UniScrobbler_disable variable

 LuaX UniScrobbler.lua ENABLE
 - Enables scrobbling by removing UniScrobbler_disable variable

 NOTE: Don't use the latest version of the script on MorphOS 3.7 or older.
       An older script is provided in the archive too, if you for some reason
       don't want to update to the latest MorphOS.


INSTALLATION TO JUKEBOX
-----------------------

 1) Copy UniScrobbler.lua to SYS:S/

 2) Insert in Jukebox Settings -> Execute command on events -> Track ends:
    MOSSYS:C/LuaX S:UniScrobbler.lua SEND "%ar%" "%t%" "%al%"

 3) Make sure that played MP3 files have working ID3 tags for artist and
    track names


HISTORY
-------

 1.0 (22.03.2014) - Public version
 1.1 (24.05.2014) - Fixed TCP write mode. Old version won't work with
                    MorphOS 3.6 and higher. Update while you remember :)
 1.2 (14.12.2014) - Small fix to URL encoding
 1.3 (16.05.2015) - Better URL encoding for MorphOS 3.8 and later.
                    Don't use this on MorphOS 3.7 or older!
