Take a look at the code that produces movie titles.
https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/blob/master/mythtv/libs/libmythmetadata/videometadata.cpp#L1036
Right now, it simply truncates anything within any form of braces.
While I don't have the final say on parsing formats, something that
handled the specific regular expression "\((0-9){4}\)$" to parse out
four digit years to allow later filtering of the results would likely be
acceptable. Note that due to how that function operates, with a
position response of "0" telling it to stop looping back through, the
interface would have to be altered to support new values.
