(Solved) Weird issue: No matter how many movies I add in this library, these 4 are always in the front of 'Recently added'

Not so weird.
addedAt="4039380000"
which translates to “Wed, 01 Jan 2098 02:00:00 GMT”

So, either

  • your Plex server is running on a machine which hasn’t precise time and date information at all times. Make sure the machine has an active ntp client and is set to synchronize its real time clock regularly, particularly after a fresh bootup.
  • these particular media items are stored with a “modified” or “created” at date/timestamp which lies ~77 years in the future. The only circumstance where such a date could get into a Plex database would be during the first scan of a just-created library though.

Cure:

  1. verify the date/time stamp of all media files involved. Correct/modify if necessary.
  2. perform the Plex Dance with the affected items
