We should have an option to edit Movies/TV Shows from appearing in the Recently Added section. This could be a simple option (from the three dots) to show Recently Added… Then when clicked, a user should see the option to Add/Remove that movie/to show from the Recently Added list.

So I copy the new format in with the old format so it won’t go on the recently added list but some bypass that and show up there anyway. Plex dance doesn’t correct it either. It would be nice to have in the drop down to remove it from the recently added list in case I’m just changing my library around. My users are confused as to why old movies are showing up again as n…
