Music Library Folder Sorting

There’s no ability to sort music folders which renders them far less useful. Also no ability to make a smartlist based on a folder which would be a similar, but different feature request I suppose.

Plex recently messed up the “Recently Added” date on ~125 files, so my Recently Added smart playlist is all messed up. I want to listen to my most recent music, and there are several ways this could be fixed, but Plex does none:

  • Just use the “date created” or “date modified” (yes I know turning of the auto empty trash feature, but too late now - thats a band-aid thought, not a solution)
  • Allow a smart playlist to be created on a folder (i.e. ‘folder’ - ‘is equals’ - ‘foldername’) or whatever
  • Allow editing of date added
  • Creating a new library, and setting the default sort order to “most recent” doesn’t work
