Hi,

Is there any way to get the current filename that vlc is playing? I've been checking libvlc for quite a bit and couldn't find anything helpful. Isn't there a specific function to retrieve the current media info?

Thanks

input_item_GetTitle( p_item );

Can I use it to find out the normal player's item or is it only valid to use my own player instance?

I need to find if the player is running and retrieve the current filename being played, but I see this DLL is mostly oriented to create your own instance of the player
