I can't make it scrobble. Whatever, though. That's not much of a problem. Here's the problem:
Screw podcast editing. Try arranging a 2 and a half to 3 hour recording strangely labelled that has to be in a very particular order, and you are not entirely sure what is contained on each file due to the nature of the labelling. After more than an hour or so of doing that on VLC's playlist feature you save it, knowing that the battle is only half done: you'll have to give it a proof listen tomorrow and make any necessary adjustments. You're finished and you save the playlist.
The next day rolls around. You open the playlist. All the files are there. Of course they're not in order. Excellent playlist system.
RAAAAAAAAAAAAGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

And what's wrong with Tools->Preferences->Audio->Enable Last.fm Submissions?
Because it works perfectly well doing it on WMP and I assumed that VLC would actually save the playlist in order. If you're suggesting using something like Audacity instead, then no. Takes longer on this computer than using a playlist (what with all the importing/exporting time, but presumably you meant something else? I'm open to suggestions). Remember, I'm not actually editing anything, just fixing the order of the already edited files.
No idea, man but it didn't last I tried it. Have updated last.fm vlc etc. but still couldn't get it to work. I plan to try winamp at some point in the future (when I start to more seriously change over to FLAC) so I've just given up for for now.
But the revised order sounds fine luckily.
