Describe the issue

When a series folder is present, volume numbers are parsed as the first 3 digits of year, rather than the volume number.

Example:

Robert Jordan /
-| Wheel of Time /
---| Vol 1 - 1990 - The Eye of the World {Kate Reading & Michael Kramer} /
-----| book.mb4

The metadata for the above results in a series/volume # of Wheel of Time#199.

It should be Wheel of Time#1

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Create a folder structure like above
  2. Scan library
  3. Observe scanned metadata for the book

Audiobookshelf version

2.0.20

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Docker

Can you try to reproduce this in the latest release 2.0.21?
@cassieesposito fixed something with this and maybe able to add more context.

I found and fixed this in the process of fixing Issue #691. This should be fixed in 2.0.21. Please let me know if it isn't.
