Zenses support the MTP protocol used on both Zune and Zen to read the statistics of tracks played from the players. It then uploads (scrobbles) these to the user's account on Last.fm .

Zenses seemed to read my device's tracks correctly, but didn't appear in the last menu as you can see. I also tried to connect to my Last.fm account from Zenses, but nothing happened. Maybe a bit feedback will be valuable to the developer(s).

Zenses need .NET and Windows Media Player 11 installed to work. You  don't need to run Zune Software as it uses the WMP11 driver directly to access the Zune's contents. (I tested it running the Zune Software and not running it. I got the same results.) Anyway I've read other users had better luck with Zenses and Zune.

Keep up the good work. This program is something I really expected!

Working Version
written by PhRLX, January 26, 2007

Be sure to select the correct (working) version for Zune. Versions 1.6 and 1.5 were able to find my zune but nothing ever happened. Ver 1.4 finds my zune, along with its name, and displays all the played tracks.

I'm sure most of you know this, but for those who don't, i hope i could help.

there's a new version of zenses (v 0.3) being released soon. expected sometime in August 2007. check for it here: http://www.last.fm/group/Zenses

hopefully it'll be more stable and work with more players. the guy developing it owns a zune so expect it to work flawlessly with the zune!!!
