An issue was observed with scan/scrape after applying a skin. So it was pulled. Failed scans can result in orphaned open files....and that confuses the NTFS emulator. Its not safe to have the emulator not working as it should.
The year problem is that it was originally added for movies, and some have used it for TV. That had not been tested as it was not the original purpose. The search routines are completely different .
So all earlier references to fixing year was relative to its design purpose..movies. Only in this release where fixes to the unexpected use of it with TV made.
