Stream Names

I use an external player (I tested this in both Foobar2000 and WinAmp).

Winamp behavior:
I've noticed that song names initially populate just fine (e.g. Artist - Song) in the playlist. However, when they actually play, they change to "stream?player=kjlsdkflkjalf".

Foobar2k behavior:
Always shows as stream?player first, and when played changes to the correct Artist - Song.


Weird exception in WinAmp:
If there is a special character such as the ý in Týr it seems to work fine...


This has always nagged me when I look over to see what song I'm listening to in WinAmp (which is my player of choice). Is this a deficiency of WinAmp, or is there something I can do?

Does anyone have any ideas on this?
