Newly Released Movies sorting.

[PuffyToesToo 346]

Currently, the Newly Released Movies on the homepage, which is now built into Emby (and I am super happy with it) displays content by release date. The issue becomes that, when I add a movie that was released say, 2 months ago, it gets buried later in the line than one from a month ago. While this does make sense, it results in my Mom not being able to find her content, for example, because she expects to see it right away. Any chance we can have a couple of sort options? (Example: by "date added" and "no older than" sort of thing). Also, for watched content to be removed.

Then use the 'latest media' lists.

 

Sorting 'recently released' by date added would be the exact same thing as 'latest movies/tv shows'....

Perhaps technically. I would use the example of the plugin that was created by Chef previously. Under that plugin, I set the parameter for what I wanted New Releases to be. I could set the date so that a New Release could be anywhere from 0-12 months, and the row would populate. Additionally, it would add those releases by the date in which it scanned into the library. That facilitated an incredibly easy way to find the newest content of recent movies, and I found that method much more user friendly. I guess not everyone appreciates that some people are elderly or otherwise have limited knowledge/ability capacity. Every other library allows THE OPTION to display content by date added, except this one. It's a simply and understandable request if you have people in your family who need this simplification, but thanks to all for the patronization over something maybe you don't understand.
