Star.Trek.Beyond.2016.1080p.Bluray.H264.AC3-OWN.mkv

This seems to work just fine.
It reads "Star Trek Beyond" for [Name] and 2016 for [Date].

Hmm, weird, didn't work for me (it searched for "OWN"). I see if I can find any more examples (i usually fix them right away, so it's not always easy to remember). Has the behavior been changes lately?

Sometimes filename is also set in the matroska tag and then MC got name tag as it is in the matroska tag... I think.... maybe

If you do update library from the tags MC read name field again from the matroska tag and that dotted name appear again

Hmm, that might be the case, if the title tag in the matroska-file is populated with the filename. (As it seems to be in my case), it seems like it just searches the title tag "verbatim".

For what it is worth, the way this persons file is named is a standard naming convention not some odd method that they came up with. Anytime my DVR fails to record a show (cable outage or other problem) and I grab a copy from online somewhere that is generally how it is named.

For TV Shows the 'standard' is:  Series.Name.SxxExx.(additional information about the contents)
For movies the 'standard' is: Movie.Name.YEAR.(additional information about the contents)

The 'additional information about the contents' contains information about where the content came from (TV recording, web download, etc), the encoding used, and what person or group created the file. Wikipedia has good information about what the different abbreviations mean
