Title of a stream in a playlist
Posted: 17 May 2012 20:24
Hi,
I use VLC to listen to the radio from HTTP stream. I've added several radios into my playlist, with their real, user-friendly name.
But when VLC starts reading an item in the playlist, it changes automatically its name to the filename of the HTTP URL (for example, for a radio named NRJ with a stream http://radios/1234.mp3, it appears under the name 1234.mp3 in the playlist). Even when I change the title in the metadata, VLC changes back the title when it starts playing.
So, what can I do to customize the name of the items in my playlist ?
Tested on VLC 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 (May 17 2012) on Windows, and on VLC 2.0.2 (May 8 2012) on Ubuntu.
I thought it was related to a bug (viewtopic.php?f=14&t=98606) but it seems not).
Thanks.
