Hello Thomas,

It might take the same date settings as for recordings, for which I like to
have the year added to it.
Maybe there are others around, only having day/month. 

Changing video metadata to only have year would suite everybody.

Please send me the changed and tested part for Arclight and I will update
it:

base.xml:
<window name="MythMetadataResults">
...
  <buttonlist name="results" from="baseVBLwide">
   ...
    <textarea name="year">

Angela
