I am using gnump3d to get my tracks to my laptop, which is using mpd to play tracks. I noticed that none of the streamed tracks were getting to last.fm. I investigated and discovered that mpdscribble was not getting told of the track length by mpd – understandably so – and was not reporting it to last.fm.

I patched the mpdscribble utility and posted about it.

How to convert 22kHz mp3 to a CD playable in a CD player. Not the most spectacular task, but I had to do some digging to figure it out. And I might as well write it down for the next time :)
