I am using vlc in remote control mode through a socket connection to create a playlist. The name given by vlc to the added track is file name most of the time. However sometimes it seems to show the track title instead which I think is extracted from file's meta information. This is creating problems in my application because I use a unique file name to identify a music file while track name is not unique. From my app I query the play list later to get the list of tracks, which is then used to look up more information, but due to this issue the lookup is not working properly. Is there a way to disable meta info lookup when adding to playlist in vlc?
