Comment (by angela.schmid@…):
Yes it will.
When it does not find "(xxxx)" at the end of the query string it uses the
query string as is and calls searchMovie unchanged.
In case it finds "(xxxx)" and xxxx is a valid date, it strips "(xxxx)" to
be passed as the query and calls searchMovie with the additional year
argument.
See mythtv/bindings/python/tmdb3/tmdb3/tmdb_api.py
Three years ago i removed the brackets and searched with "Blues Brothers
2000", but i got much better search results for query="Star Wars" and a
separate year argument starting with tmdb v3.
Adapting the source to interprete 9999 at the end and checking for a valid
year range will give better search results also for "Blues Brothers 2000".
After stripping the date away I would check if the query string is not
empty, leaving all as is, in cases like the movie "2012".
