Mine hasn't registered a single track in over 2000. I have all the info in there correctly and firewalls set up for it and everything.

Last Fm radio option is useless, I’ve given up on that.

 

I just use it for scrobbling and even then it doesn’t always work properly

I don't think I've used the radio option but I do love the charts so that's why I use it. However, I don't believe I have the any problems scrobbling.
Only problem with the site is that the recommendations are total crap.

Usually the reason why it doesn't scrobble is the tags, yes. The best way is just check your mp3 is encoded in lame. Umm, and the info is clear.

I also have had problems with the radio function, more or less so, that i don't have it. It appears I can't listen to radio on it, I wonder why this is, but it just doesn't do anything, so I just use it for the charts that are shown on my blog and at last.fm...

Scrobbling stopped working for me right around the time they unveiled the new site. I've given up, myself.

In fact, I need to take the chart out of my signature.

Bump.

My home computer double counts every song that I play, so I have to go in and manually delete the doubled songs in order for it to scrobble accurately.  Anyone have any ideas why this might be?  I have uninstalled and reinstalled and it continues to do it.
 
Also, I have it set up to scrobble the songs that I play on my iPod, but after working great for about 3 months, it stopped working altogether.  Anybody have any ideas on what that might be?

Most probably you updated your ipod programs and need to configure the plugin again. Don't know about the first problem, sounds like a problem with the player or the tags too, not the scrobbler.
