    Default Date Metadata for video files

    I'm still working through v4 issues. I'm trying to figure out how Mezzmo determines the dates of my home video files. To make sure that I didn't have any artifacts of my old database, I deleted the folder holding these home videos, and then selected Yes when prompted with "Do you want to remove the files from your library". I then shut down Mezzmo. Restarted Mezzmo. During the restart I also upgraded to v.4.0.4. I then added the folder back into the library.

    I can't determine the logic that Mezzmo uses to assign the YEAR metadata. As an example, look at the files marked by the red bars. Mezzmo has assigned the year 2009 to one, 2010 to another and left the other two empty. These 4 files all have the same windows date metadata (with 2011 as the year)?

    I really don't want to have to do, and most likely redo, this manually (ie edit the metadata within Mezzmo)... So, what can I do to my file's names or their metadata, so that Mezzmo will correctly and consistently interpret the date?
