Ah yes, the code says it is a misuse of the year field. I think the correct fix for this is to set the userdate in the fxd file and then use this in the skins. A quick test and this works well. Also removing the key == 'year' as this is for the audio metadata. >> May be also the channel that a programme has been recorded on would be a >> useful addition too. I will add the channel_id and the tunerid too to the fxd file.
