Display proper song name at playlist list

[daniilrozanov]

Expected behavior of the wanted feature

Currently, if you drag a folder containing a bunch of mp3 files into the mpv window and type gp, it will list the file names, even though the metadata contains the correct song title. It's a little annoying when dummy file names are displayed instead of song titles.

Alternative behavior of the wanted feature

Print proper song title instead of filename. This also applies to videos

https://github.com/jonniek/mpv-playlistmanager resolves titles. This is unlikely to be added in the core because it requires calling ffprobe on each playlist entry which can consist of thousands of network files.

Ok thank you.

Probably, obtaining the correct name should only be done if it is cheap, as for local files. Or, perhaps, through configuration.

Anyway, I got the answer, so I'm closing this topic.
