Feature Request: Option to show file name instead of metadata #358

Closed lisiczka43 closed 2 months ago

lisiczka43 commented 1 year ago

It seems to display the name of a video stream in matroska files, which often contains language tags or other garbage information when no file title is present, making it difficult to navigate playlists. Thanks.

As a first step, we should improve parsing of videos to not use audio track title when no others are present as a whole media title. This part is already done in new Clapper API.

That's great if you're aware of the issue and working on it. I also have a small suggestion for subtitles rendering and will update the appropriate opened issue.

This should be now improved. Player will only show video container title (without fallback to audio track name). And if none, it should simply display file basename without extension. I do not think we need to add custom preferences for this. Would be to much clutter. Since I hope this is improved in latest git, I am closing this. If you try latest code and disagree (still have problem) feel free to reopen.
