I typed this up for other people who might want to Scrobble blueheronradio.fm/ (Blue Heron plays traditional Japanese music) It should also work for others. It took more than expected but if you still want to scrobble...
I'm using Windows vista but this might work for newer versions. Lastly forgive any spelling or grammar issues.
First sign up here http://www.mysqueezebox.com/index/Home
You'll need to download Logitech Media server.
Once it downloads sign in.
Now look your windows toolbar you should have a little icon in the corner indicating that the media server is running. Right click, open web control. A page will open that looks like a web player. In the bottom right corner there will be a little icon that says settings, click that.


You should have another page with a bunch of differnet little tabs. Go to Plugins. Make sure audio scrobbler is checked. Click settings for that. Sign into your last fm. Make sure both the options listed say yes.


Also go to the mysqueezebox tab, make sure you are signed in. Apply.
Now go to the tab that says player. If you haven't used this service before it should say no players detected. It will say that you can use Itunes or some other players. It will also mention Squeezebox.
Close the page with the server on it.
I'm using Sqeezeplay (desktop version of Squeezebox) for this tutorial, I couldn't get other players to work maybe you can (which you can get here: http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/index.php?ver=7.8) it's the first one.
Start that up. Once you finish the set up
Should be something similar to this.

Scroll to the app gallery option. Click that it will give you apps to download. Pick the shoutcast one install it or whatever.
Also While in squeezeplaye, go to your settings, advanced last fm and make sure your name is checked.
Open up the media server again, going into the settings and back to player.
It should now look like this

Now close it.
Back on squeezeplay, go to your Shoutcast app. Search for blue heron radio. It should appear. Click on it and you should be done.
I hope this helps.
