QA better way to do things

I have a 1000 plus collection. I have issues with the scan import function. About 30% are not recognized. That is fine. It is not close to reasonable that a first shot should work better than that. I use naming conventions that make movies easier for me to find.
Suggestions, if not found, replace '_' with ' '. This is a commonly used convention by the DVD makers and the conversion will be 'clean'.
If not found and the 'file name ' is edited, NEVER pick the selection automatically. I have hundreds of wrongly identified movies. I don't know where to begin fixing them. I suggest creating a pick list of possible matches. One selection must be abort or none of these. I have 4 versions of Robin Hood but your app matches with the latest version. I have not been able to find what the exact movie name your app is looking for so after making a dozen guesses I give up. What would be great is to list a wider variety of possibilities if the first list doesn't work. That way the user might be able to better understand your naming convention. My naming convention for identical movie names is the name + year. I have stopped importing movies until I get a better handle on avoiding miss-identification. It is likely I will need to start over or not use this app at all.
I have my own app I wrote to manage my movies but yours has much more added information. $10 is cheap to have all that nice to have information.
