Issue 66: More Picky Tagging Requests

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.

3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.
Previous versions of iTiVo seemed to fill in the year field in the video files (iTunes tagging) but 
that no longer seems to happen.  It would be great if the year field in the info tab of iTunes was 
tagged with the year the show was first aired (originalAirDate in the XML file).

You added the originalAirDate field to the .txt file for use with pyTiVo but have populated that 
field with the recorded date.  That date should be populated from the originalAirDate field in the 
XML file.  This field is particularly important because I believe it is the field used to populate the 
Year field that is listed next to the episode title on every TV show.  Right now all of my TiVo 
Goback shows have a year of 2008 because that is the date I recorded them.

If you could fix these 2 tagging items it would be great.  Correct automated tagging makes the 
resulting video files far more useful (and saves me hours of having to manually change tags :) )

originalairdate is not available in the way the current code is structured (what you
see in the iTivo table of shows is what's available). So the easy change to put that
in is not possible..
  I can probably add that later by parsing through the xml file.. but for now.. 'eh'...

  Marking as enhancment..
