New sorting option "sort by favorite adding date"

[cfan4tic 5]

Hello,

I'm missing a very useful sorting method for a long time. As described in the title, it would be very useful to have an option to sort by date when movies have been added to the favorites. Currently sorting by date is only possible in regards to the date when titles have been added to the library.

Is this possible within one of the next releases? Does Emby even store the information "date" / "timestamp" when a title is getting flagged as favorite?

Hi, no, we don't even store this information. Anything is possible although I don't think I've heard others mention a desire for this before.

Well, you can think of this as a watchlist substitute. In large libraries it is much more pratical to see the favorites in the order you have added them. It is unlikely that someone can watch all titles shortly after adding them to the favorites because of the library size (large ++). Over time you lose overview and expect to find the recently added favorites on top.
