Describe the feature/enhancement

When importing a podcast episode, it would be good to be able to set a way of inferring the season and episode based on the title. Inference could be done automatically via the metadata (if easily read), following a standard set of regex rules from the episode title, or allow the user to input their own regex in a field per-podcast to grab the metadata on episode import.

This is for podcasts that are not properly setting the episode number in the RSS feed?

Have you seen this feature somewhere else?

I've not seen the feature elsewhere, but this is mainly a gripe I have with The Nosleep Podcast as they don't seem to add season info on the RSS metadata that's following a standard. So it would be a great feature to have for those podcasts that do not format their metadata properly but still gives user control to somehow extract that data automatically.
