YouTube Scrobbler GreaseMonkey Script

Today, I found an answer to one of my longest-standing wishes, the ability to scrobble YouTube videos on Last.fm, and I’m so excited that I want to share it.  With this GreaseMonkey script (that page has screenshots), you can scrobble any YouTube video you are listening to by manually entering the information.  (You will, of course, need the GreaseMonkey Firefox extension installed.) Unfortunately, it only seems to work some of the time, but, still, this is so great!  Because I don’t pirate music, I watch a lot of music videos on YouTube of songs I don’t own, and now I can have those plays reflected in my Last.fm profile.

    I have a problem in that when I say play one track using the YT scrobbler.. my last.fm profile page shows using Youtube Scrobbler.. but when I start
    playing music from WMP 11 and the notification should change it is still showing listening using Youtube Scrobbler.. I tried disabling greasemonkey
    but after 8 tracks from Windows Media Player 11 I still see listening using Youtube Scrobbler.. is this a bug with last.fm or with the scrobbler itself?
