MSN Now playing shows Artist/Artist

Postby paddythegooner89 » 07 Jun 2012 16:37

Hi, I've got a problem when I listen to music on VLC (which is my standard media player for everything). All of a sudden, my msn shows Artist-Artist. Say I listen to Metallica - Enter Sandman, it shows up as Metallica - Metallica on MSN (Just to give an example so you know exactly what I'm talking about). Now the weird thing is, when I use the god awful Windows Media Player, it shows up as Title-Artist on MSN's Now Playing feature. So I'm thinking it's a VLC issue. I recently posted on here where a poster helped me change VLC from Title-Artist to Artist-Title, and I've done that, tried to reverse it again and mess around with it and also trying the $p instead, but with no luck, still shows Artist-Artist on MSN in VLC.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers mate, that worked! Can't believe I didn't think of that.
