YouTube Music Last.fm Scrobbler Extension

Scrobbles songs from YouTube Music or Google Play Music to Last.fm.

Usage:
1. Install extension
2. Click on the extension icon and login via \"Connect to Last.fm\"
3. Refresh your YT Music / Google Play page.

Features:

* Player controls
* Lightweight - Only runs when a Play window is open.
* Love/unlove tracks
* Toggle scrobbling
* Keyboard shortcuts
* Scrobbles every 7 minutes or 70% of song played, whichever happens first. This means for songs >=14 minutes, such as mixes, you will have several scrobbles for a single listening session to more fairly represent long tracks. You can turn this off on the options page (Right click on extension icon and click 'options').


Keyboard shortcuts:
Keyboard shortcuts can be edited at chrome://extensions or by going to \"Chrome menu\"(upper right icon in browser) > Tools > Extensions > \"Keyboard shortcuts\"(at bottom right of page).

Defaults*:
Toggle_play, next/previous_song**: Keyboard media keys
Open Play tab: Ctrl+Shift+0


* Current users will not have their keyboard shortcuts updated and you will have to update your shortcuts manually as described above.
** Currently issues with Linux media key support, so default shortcut for Linux is Ctrl+Shift+{7,8,9} for previous_song, toggle_play, next_song, respectively.
