This morning I upgraded to PMS version **1.21.1.3795** (on Windows 10). I am using the web client from a 2nd Win10 machine in Firefox and after the upgrade I no longer have a single list for “Recently Added Movies” and “Recently Added TV” … instead I appear to have **separate** list for every since separate library, and all of the lists have the _exact same name_. I have several issues with this:

- I would prefer to at least have an option to go back to the unified ‘Recently Added’ lists for each media type.
- If the option for a unified list is refused, then it is **ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL** for each of the lists to identify the library it is reporting! This **IS NOT AN OPTION**.
- If an option exists to choose the sequence for the multiple recently added lists within the clients, I could not find it. This is also an important feature.
- I may be alone, but I would **REALLY** like an option to specify what “recently” actually means. One of the lists of “recently” added items shows the most recent as being added **three years ago**! Yes, it is the most recent _in the library_, but I would prefer to have it not listed _at all_.

This is happening to me too. This has to a bug, no?

I can confirm this is happening to me as well. Very frustrating. I also reverted back 1.21.1.3766. But still issue persist.

There’s a response to this here:

> Hi Plexians, Sorry about the merge of On Deck (OD) and Continue Watching (CW) hitting the public for Web users. A hotfix has now gone out to correct the issue. While that was not the intent, it is something we were in the process of exploring internally. There was a mistake on our part around the flag that should have prevented this from being shown to the public. However, this is an opportunity to discuss why you saw this and what we have in store. Through research and discussion with users, …

Please move discussion to that thread.
