Thanks Angela,

I have applied the patch to tmdb3.  If called with the date in (), it is 
obviously stripped by videometadata.cpp.  Changing the name to have the 
date at the end without () does indeed give the expected results.

My preference would be of course to keep the date within () so it would 
work equally well for plex and mythtv.  Are you aware of any work to 
use/retain any of the data within () in videometadata?

Michael
