CHScrobbler

CHScrobbler is a simple Java app that reads the exported currently playing song text file from Clone Hero and uses that information for scrobbling to last.fm.

This app was created by a request of a friend who is a big user of last.fm. I decided to put this out in public for those that may be interested in scrobbling their songs in Clone Hero.

Installation/Usage

  1. Before starting the app, please make sure that "Export Current Song" is enabled in your Clone Hero Settings.

  2. Download the latest version of CHScrobbler.

  3. Place the exe file inside your own Clone Hero directory.

  4. You may open the program. Upon opening the program, it will prompt you to provide your last.fm credentials so that it may be able to scrobble under your name.

    Note: If you don't want to do the setup, create a file called config.txt in the same directory as the .exe and put these properties in it and fill it in:

lastfm_apikey=
lastfm_secret=
lastfm_username=
lastfm_password=

You can get your last.fm api details here.

  1. After getting the app set up, feel free to start playing a song. After playing the song for quite a while, the app will start scrobbling your current song. The app provides a log of the song you're currently playing and lets you know if a song was successfully scrobbled.
