| Summary | 0011765: Guessing a movie year from filename fails for dates earlier than 1930 | ||||
| Description | I create movie files with my Hauppage PVR. I like to include the year of release as part of the file name, examples: The Unholy Three (1925).mp4 Little Caesar (1931).mp4 711 Ocean Drive (1950).mp4 then when I import these to my MMW library, MMW nicely recognizes the (year) in the file name and puts those 4 digits into the Date field of the properties for that library entry. The problem is, its broken for years that are 1930 or earlier! The (year) part of the file name does not get interpreted correctly as a Date, and the 4 digits get put into the wrong Properties field (maybe into the Series, I forget where). So when I import any and all movie files with a date before 1930, I have to manually fix up all the Date fields. This problem has existed in every version of MMW 4, official and beta releases. I am pretty sure it would affect any media file (audio or video) with a 1930-or-earlier date inside ( ) as part of file name. Please fix before final MMW 4.1 release! | ||||
