First Move in Recently Added Movies is an Old Movie

Server Version#: 4.34.4, but has been an issue for a few versions now
Player Version#:

The first movie listed in the Most Recently Added movies is an old movie that has been on the server for a long time. At first, I deleted the movie it was calling the most recent as it was an old movie I didn’t care about anymore, and it replaced it with another old movie that’s been on the server for a year now. The rest of the movies in the list are actually recently added.

Inspect the added and or modified properties in the Plex media info XML https://support.plex.tv/articles/201998867-investigate-media-information-and-formats/

Convert them to human-readable date formats using something like https://www.epochconverter.com/

See if one of these dates lies in the future.

Okay the first date is January 2098. Is there a way to batch fix these since it seems that when I delete the movie, another old one takes its place?

Only by editing the database directly.
I recommend you to backup the primary database file first!

See Change the addedAt date?

Thanks, I know SQL pretty well, so once I figured out how to use SQL Lite, and figured out where the Database was, modifying the entry was a piece of cake. I rebooted the server and it worked perfectly! Thanks for your help with this, you’ve fixed a huge annoying for my OCD…
