As of now, Spotify itself doesn’t directly scrobble local files. However, you can use third-party services like Last.fm to scrobble your local files.
Last.fm can track your music playback, including local files, as long as the files have accurate ID3 tags (metadata) with artist and track information.
To ensure accurate scrobbling:
- Correct ID3 Tags: Make sure your local files have accurate ID3 tags. This includes artist name, track title, album name, and other relevant information.
- Last.fm Connection: Connect your Last.fm account to your music player or streaming service, including Spotify.
- Scrobbling Enabled: Ensure that scrobbling is enabled in your Last.fm settings.
By following these steps, you can effectively scrobble your local files to Last.fm and maintain a comprehensive music listening history.
