Prevent VLC from changing the Title in playlist

[Keeper Riff]

Hello
I have a m3u8 playlist of radio stations with their names included in #EXTINF. When I open it with VLC, it look normal with all names present:


But when it starts playing, It changes the title to the name of the song currently played:


How do I prevent that?

I tried disabling metadata network access, automatically preparse items, emptying the "Change title according to current media" field, erasing lua\meta and lua\playlist to no avail.

This comes from the live data sent by the radio during playback. AFAIK there is no way to avoid it being displayed.

I think I've found a workaround for Android version at least. When I open the m3u8 file from the Playlists menu and not from the file explorer, it looks like this:



And this list does not change the names when playing (the "currently playing" line at the bottom shows the author of the song being played, but that's OK). I wonder if there's a way to bring this kind of behavior to the desktop version.
