Describe the Bug

Is this normal behavior?

I'm using Navidrome as a source to send scrobbles to Maloja, but Multi-Scrobbler only sends the scrobble if the song is played in full from start to finish. If I for exemple jump to
the next track mid-song, that play will not get counted as a scrobble.

That's not what happens on other music tracking services I use like LastFm and ListenBrainz, which also receive Scrobbles from my Navidrome instance through the official Navidrome integration for both services. They register the play even if I don't listen to the full song.

In fact, if I use ListenBrainz and/or LastFm as a source on Multi-Scrobbler, both receiving scrobbles from the same Navidrome instance, then in this case Multi-Scrobbler will scrobble to Maloja in the ListenBrainz/LastFm way where the song will be counted even if not played in full.

So is this supposed to be normal behavior for the Navidrome > Maloja implementation?

Thanks!

I am not able to reproduce this when using the same version of navidrome. MS is scrobbling as expected.

Please provide logs from MS related to the behavior you are seeing. I cannot troubleshoot your issue without more information.

MS uses the standard thresholds defined by Last.fm - When is a scrobble a scrobble?
for when a track can be scrobbled:

• It has been played for at least 50% of its duration
• or has been played for at least 4 minutes

When the track changes MS will log the listening activity for the track and also tell you if it was scrobbled based on the thresholds. An example of a log message where the track was not scrobbled:

MyArtist - My Sample Song not added because did not meet thresholds with tracked time of 10.00s (wanted 240s) and tracked percent of 3.00% (wanted 50%).

You can also see the monitored listening in real-time by viewing the Web UI for your navidrome source. The bottom-right corner shows the amount of seconds listened and how much of the track that accounts for.
