For those of us who are not SQL nerds and dont want to mess with server files etc adding a button into plex even if its just for the windows version for maintenance purposes for removing it from recently added would be wonderful as i have shows that have glitched and have been at the top of the list for months now and wont go away until who knows when. Yes i have searched how to get rid of them and no there is no SIMPLE fix this would be a wonderful addition whenever shows/movies decide to be dumb and stick around for far to long.

There’s already an existing feature suggestion discussing an option to remove items from the recently added hub. I suggest you comment/vote in that thread in order to help us avoid distracting or cannibalizing votes.

> Why can’t I remove a movie or TV show from the recently added list? I’m trying to convert my movies to a different format. 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…

I’ll therefore close this thread as a duplicate.

Inspect the [Plex media info](https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/201998867-Investigate-Media-Information-and-Formats) XML of a few of them.  
Copy the number inside the XML property `addedAt="...`  
and paste it into [https://www.epochconverter.com/](https://www.epochconverter.com/)  
Now look at the human-readable date which this website is giving back.  
Is it in the future?
