Bugzilla – Bug 4701
Title in Now Playing page goes by server setting for title format which may include artist and other tags

In both the Touch and Nokia770 skins the track title in the now playing page takes on the title format defined in Server Settings -> Formatting. As an example, if the title format is set to Artist - Title and my sample track is Jeremy by Pearl Jam, the now playing page will show the title as "Jeremy - Pearl Jam". Changing the title format to title only will yield the result of the title in the now playing page becoming "Jeremy". While this looks like an easy solution to just set the title format to Title, it presents a problem when browsing a playlist. Opening the playlists page from the browse menu and selecting a playlist will display whatever is defined in the title format. So if the title format is set to Title only song titles will be displayed. Changing the title format and then viewing the playlist will change the display of the playlist to the title format. This does not have any effect on the current playlist, only when browsing playlists.
mine to fix.
Fixed on 7.0 trunk in checkin 11370 Fixed on 6.5 branch in checkin 11371 instead of [% songtitle %], use [% itemobj.title %]
