17.0.14 handles most files mentioned above nicely.
But please keep the examples where it stumbles coming. We need a lot of real world examples to train the system.

This is what I found when I imported my existing videos into a new build 14 library...
* Name and Year are generally captured correctly from files named Title (Year).ext, but not Title (Year) something else.ext—then the whole thing is captured as Name.
* Whatever is captured as Name (for any media type) is converted to upper case all words, even if the title in the filename is proper title case.
* Series, Season, Episode and Title are captured correctly from files named Series S00E00 EpTitle.ext, and if EpTitle is omitted. Some common variations are not handled, however:
* A double episode indicated with S00E01-02 will result in "02" being captured as Name.
* For the episodes of a miniseries named Series E00.ext, all is captured as Name and Episode is not.

Correct. I've had trouble with this as well. There are quite a few of this. I've often got one or two of them in every second TV Show.
It would be good if Carnac adds the sequential numbers in the episodes. In Ricks case: "01-02" as episode (or 1 & 2 if you leave out the zeros).
The double episodes are also added to lots of online databases, so this in an important one for future scraping.
Matt:
Next build:
Changed: Carnac won't change capitalization when a value already uses title case.
Changed: Carnac better understands series ranges like "Curb Your Enthusiasm S4E1-6".
Changed: Carnac does a better job with miniseries that have episode values but no season.
