Change "Date added to library"

There are 2 scenarios you need to be aware of. When creating a new library, Plex will use the file/folder dates for the added_at date. This way you won’t have everything appear as new. However, adding additional content to the library will always use the current date for added_at. The update_at is similar, but that’s not really used for anything so it’s not as important.

I’ve done this for Windows, but not for QNAP. Basically I used a scripting program that can ready the file/folder dates then called individual SQL commands to update each entry in the database.
