Filename processor regexp for airdate-only?

Hi everyone,

The past few days I've been setting up my media server (simple YAMJ files on my NAS w/ a PopcornHour frontend), and I've downloaded a ton of (legit) video podcasts from our largest national broadcaster.

They're all named something like

shownamewithoutspacesYYMMDDhhmmss.mp4

(with YY, MM and DD being the two-digit year, month and day of the airdate)

And TVRenamer is not happy about this - leaving me to manually connect thetvdb episode info and MP4s every time there's a new episode of something. Yawn.

So my question is: is it somehow possible to get TVRenamer to recognize the airdate, and use thetvdb to translate airdate into the required season/episode tuple?

I was thinking that maybe the regexps for the filename processors would support <y>, <m> and <d> for the airdate - something like (^|[^a-z])(?<y>[0-9]{2})(?<m>[0-9]{2})(?<d>[0-9]{2})([0-9]{6})

/Thanks
Thomas

PS: I have tried the "Look for airdate in filenames" checkbox - but that didn't work
