i did that because metadata is often crap on tv shows.

For instance, i saw those kind of titltes in metadata :

- Touch.S02E01.Event.Horizon.720p.WEB.DL.DD5.1.H.264.ECI.mkv 4987
=> what is that number at the end ??

- S02E01 Event Horizon
=> cool, but what show is it ? with several tv shows like this, it's a mess

- Event Horizon
=> even worse, you don't even know what you have in the video list

I even had a movie with "ripped by toto blabla" on all metadata, including
the title.


Title is set correctly on audio files most of the time, but that's not true
with videos.
