Full Version: Is it possible/easy to change the 'Date added' of a movie?

I have my movies sorted by date added - the most recent additions first.
My NAS was running a little low on space so I put my ISO's through Handbrake and created mkv's of the main movie.
A 'Clean library' and re-scan removes the old ones and adds in the newer version - as expected. But I have older movies now appearing at the top of my list now. Can I edit that date to a date in the past?
Running 10.1.on W7.
Thanks.
You can use SQLiteSpy and edit the database directly - be careful though, it's like registry editing, don't do what you don't know for sure is right.

Just back-up the db file first (myvideosXX.db) and you can go in and do it manually.
Thanks for that: Do you know which 'key(s)' it's in though? Can't see it. Found 'last watched' but that made no difference (not sure when xbmc uses it either though lol. Smile )
