Summary:

Please detect (####) in movie-filenames , and treat it as the year of the movie when importing

Area:

Mediaplayer Config/Movie Playback

Description:

Many movies are named with "(1986)" in filename, it always tells the year of the movie.
If it were used when importing movie-data from IMDB, then more movies would be correctly imported.

Maybe some admin / (web) developer / whatever with strong RegEx skills can build an Expression for you that matches years in all kind of brackets without false positives.
If I get such a nice Expression (working for .NET of course) I'd be happy to implement that.
