Why are some of my media folders getting classified as tv shows when they are movies?

I wanted to show year and band name under icons on music videos, so I turned those on. It became immediately apparent that the year shown was often not the year that should be in the metadata. Assuming I had done something wrong, I went through an exercise of manually updating all the incorrect Year fields, one by one. Frequently (not always) I would enter a year, click save and the resulting display on the icon page would then show the year between 1 and 3 years earlier than the year I just entered in the metadata. Opening the metadata again for that video, the Year field was indeed changed from what I entered. It makes no difference whether the "Lock this item to prevent future changes" is ticked or not so it doesn't appear to be changing it due to external metadata. This doesn't happen with every video I manually update, but I would roughly estimate 40% display this behaviour. Going back into the metadata and changing it a second time seems to always fix it.

I have the complete series of BSG (2003, not 1979) and I use the trakt.tv plugin. I am having a problem with Trakt picking up on the wrong TV series. I have the files named as Battlestar Galactica - S00E00 - Title.ext and would like to keep it this way. I would also like to be able to keep the name of the series in MB to be Battlestar Galactica with no trailing parenthesis if at all possible. My collection on Trakt thinks that I have the 1979 version instead of the 2003 reboot. Is there any way to fix this?
