A week ago, I accidentally added an album to Plex that had a future date. Since then, no new music additions are showing up in Recently Added. I removed the offending album, cleaned bundles, emptied the trash, and refreshed all music metadata, but no new items appear. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
Almost sounds like database corruption, can you post a copy of your server logs ?
Thank you for your help. The zipped logs file was too large to upload (8+ MB), so I put it here on Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iEKHrI3phzfFJmAbRa8TLzMs1qC0GgsL/view?usp=sharing
Please let me know if you need this supplied in some other way.
@tug3 The logs appear to cover a fairly short time window, and do not include the standard startup debug logs. Where you adding a lot of media or refreshing a lot of media at the time the logs were pulled? Also the server isnt windows Nov 16, 2025 11:48:01.888 [140409123314488] INFO - Plex Media Server v1.42.2.10156-f737b826c - Synology DS1621+ x86_64 - build: linux-x86_64 synology-dsm72 - GMT -05:00
Stupid suggestion, reboot the NAS and see if the issue persists.
Ugh, you’re right–I forgot that I moved Plex over to my NAS. I’ll reboot as you suggested and check back in!
I restarted the NAS and did a new scan. I also optimized the database, cleaned bundles, and emptied the recycling. I added three new items to my music library. Of those, “Recently Added” now shows one, but ignored the other two. (These show up in the actual library, just not in “Recently Added.”)
The first support article I found on a similar issue suggested clearing the Plex cache, so I did that earlier. Maybe that’s why the logs cover such a short period. Here are newly generated logs: https://drive.google.com/file/d/118foHyBP1haqQZ7aprBoA9nsWwSTx3AQ/view?usp=sharing
Were the newly added items just re-releases of albums that you already had on your server? (Even if they were contained in a box set)
If so, Plex is not considering them as “new”.
No, they’re all brand-new.
