Nice work lozzd!

One lil' remark: could you make it possible to set up the right time zone. Like UTC +1 (CET).

Unfortunately I can only set one time zone for all the scrobblersigs, and since im from GMT the same as AS is, i keep it to that ;)

The code has many limitations, and if I was better at PHP i'd try and improve it...
Such as checking to see if AS is actaully up or not (thus preventing apache from crashing like last night) and this time zone one.. but for now, im afraid its GMT :)

Try adding this to the end of your URL:

&time_format=g:i:s+A&date_format=D.,+M.+j,+Y&offset_direction=minus&hours=5&zone=EST

where the time/date formats are here. :)

i feel stupid. I've never understood how to get that working server side. i should be able to do this with my website server as well... but i'm not sure what to do. do you just put the php file on the server and reference it? or do you have to run something special server side? Webservers are a hole in my background. the wiki forum never seemed to spell it out step by step.

Ah, yes, I found the option on one of the forums I run tonight.. there is a specific option that allows dynamic images, and its off by default on most.
Complain to the admin ;)

No need to feel stupid... its not that simple, requires some basic knowledge.
The php file just sits on the server, and when someone requests the image, it runs... on my end, the server side end, I have a web server (apache) running PHP which is obvoiously needed to run the code.
Its pretty simple once you know how, but ive been doing this kinda thing for a while :)

Ooook we seem to have hit a small problem.
Because the scrobblersig service requires communication between my server and the AS servers, if the AS servers are slow, so is the scrobblersig. earlier this evening, it was taking up to 10 seconds or more to get the image, beacuse the AS webservers are, quite frankly, overloaded, as you can read in the front page news. When the new webserver comes, everything will be fantastic again hopefully, until then, i apologise if the scrobblersigs are slightly delayed.

Hi :)

First I'm new here so hi :)

Second, does anyone know of (or can make) a scrobblersig that's got the artist and title on seperate lines? basically i'm looking for one that's narrower in width (while still variable) but not bothered about height so it would look like this (just copying the one above hehe):

Played @ 17:52 UTC 16.1.05:
The Getaway Plan
Where is the Love? (Bonus Track)

Thanks

dvboy,
I got back from college unexpectedly early, and took a look at the script. I cant easily modify the ScrobblerSig onto two lines im afraid.. if anyone else is really good at PHP and wants to do it, i'd be happy to host it :)

Should I be worried if my sig is the only one that says "audioscrobbler.com is broke"?

Update: nevermind -- all is well now!

If you havnt played a song for a while and your recent played track says "no songs played recently"(or something like that) then u will get the "audiosccrobbler.com is broke" error in the sig.

Yep. Thank you for explaning! I chose the error message audioscrobbler.com is broke as its just a general error that happens when anything breaks, so I guess i should change it something like "something is broke" or something..

SCROBBLERSIG VERSION 2

ScrobblerSig service will halt for just a few moments while I lob an updated script (kindly provided by Humpty) onto the server...

Bear with me..

Looks like the update went well.....

It looks exactly like the original scrobblersig, unless you specify some variables.. (feel free to)

E.g.

http://www.denness.net/scrobblersig.php?username=lozzd
Is my standard scrobbler sig..
http://www.denness.net/scrobblersig.php?username=lozzd&backgroundcolor=000000
Is my scrobblersig, only with a black background...

Other acceptable variables to append to the end of the sig are:

Time variables (exaplained earlier in the thread)
labelcolor
fontsize (default is 8 for your reference)
labelcolor (the top line of text)
trackcolor (the colour of the text)
backgroundtransparent (1 for true, 0 for false)
backgroundcolor (doesnt work unless you set backgroundtransparent to 0)

Have fun!
Let me know if you get any problems!
Laurie

EDIT: Uploaded a guide now.
