### VLC is not scrobbling fields correctly
182

Before reporting an issue turn on metadata logging in the MS VLC configuration, [see the VLC documentation.](configuration/configuration.mdx#vlc-information-reporting)
If the file being played in VLC does not have ID3 tags/metadata information multi-scrobbler can attempt to extract artist, title, and album information from the raw filename using regular expressions. Mutli-scrobbler will only do this if there is **no other information** reported by VLC about these fields.

To extract this information use [named capture groups](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Regular_expressions/Named_capturing_group) in your expression matching the field that should be extracted: `artist``title` and/or `album`. MS accepts multiple expressions, the first one that matches a filename will be used.
