Fetch extras titles from file names for TV Shows

Right now, when you add some extra content to e.g your TV shows, only the episode number is read from the file name, but the actual title of the video file, if present, is ignored, and you are left with having to manually add this information in the Plex web interface.

It would be great if you could have the option to extract title information from file names, where this information exists. This would be very useful when adding DVD/Blu-ray extras for TV shows and movies, so you would have to do the work only once (for the file name) and then you could automatically add this information to the Plex database.

This only applies to tv shows episodes/extras.
On movies, the extras titles are indeed taken from the file names.

You might wanna edit the topic title.

I just had to edit ~100 extras from two show box sets complete seasons I recently converted.
Unfortunately, the TVDB has little when it comes ot box sets extras.

Early 2021 clean-up: obsolete/implemented (forum preview of next tv-show agent includes support for actual local extras for tv-shows)
