Hi,
first of all, I really like serviio. On other hand, sometimes playing with filename so it'll fetch the right metadata is really annoying. One for all was the movie seven :). Well ... what about:

As a last resort, where there are choosen online metadata if serviio fails like this:

2013-02-08 19:29:07,976 WARN [OnlineVideoSourcesMetadataExtractor] Online metadata search returned no results for file battlestar.galactica.razor.extended.1080p.bluray.x264-leverage.mkv [VideoDescription [type=FILM, names=[battlestar galactica razor extended, battlestar galactica razor extended], year=null, season=null, episode=null]]

search the folder for small text nfo file, parse IMDB url from it, take the ID and use eg. this source:
http://www.omdbapi.com/?i=tt0991178&t=

This may be turnable on/off per forlders eg.

If this isn't acceptable, what about "adding" them into dbase with title "FIX METADATA" or something, so it can be easilly seen from TV?

How about having the IMDB tag embedded in the movie filename?

That would be doable. Create a bitbucket ticket please.
