Using VLC on AndroidTV to stream downloaded movies from a PC share. Even after editing the filename to remove extraneous naming "10bit, bluray, x265, etc", all of that still appears when browsing from VLC. Some of them don't even display the file name, just says "Encoded by mkvCinemas" or such. They play fine.

I launched the movie in VLC on the PC and went to Tools>Media Information. I edited the metadata in there, changed the "Encoded by mkvCinemas" to the film name (Rear Window in this example) and saved. However, going back into VLC on the TV and browsing the share, the file still says "Encoded by mkvCinemas". Cleared the VLC cache on the TV to see if that was it, but still won't display file name.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong or how to get just the file name to appear?
