Metadata is looked up in the app's own language, so an unrelated older foreign series can come back under exactly the same localized name as a recent local-language one. `pickConfidentMatch` admitted the older row through the series "premiered earlier" tolerance — portals report the running season's year while TMDB reports the premiere — and then let `pickMostPopular` decide across every admitted candidate, discarding the year evidence that had just admitted them. The better-known show won on votes, and the newer series rendered its poster, cast, genres and rating. Rank admitted candidates by year evidence first (`yearEvidenceTier`: the provider's exact year, then a year off by one, then the series tolerance) and let popularity break ties only inside the strongest tier any candidate reached. The tolerance stays — three of eight real lookups from one install depend on it — but it is a last resort, not an equal. Measured over 400 Cyrillic series titles sampled from a real catalog, 20 normalized keys had a same-titled older series and 16 of those were the more popular row. The mirror case is accepted knowingly: a long-running show whose stated season year happens to BE another same-titled show's premiere year now resolves to the newer show. Only the older show's season air dates could separate the two and a search response does not carry them, while that shape needs three coincidences at once against one that needs none. Search cache keys move to `|v4` with a matching startup cleanup, because a positive row naming the wrong show stays fresh for 30 days. Merged with `Build on windows x64` red: the checked-in Windows Embedded MPV runtime pin points at an upstream release whose retention expired, so that job fails repository-wide on a cold cache. Unrelated to this change; tracked separately. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

A new series no longer picks up the poster, cast and plot of an older show that happens to share its title. Metadata is looked up in your own language, so an unrelated foreign series can be listed under the very same name — and the better-known one used to win. The release year the provider states now decides first.
