Hello Jonathan,
This is probably semi OT as well. I have ~1000 movies in the library and I'm 90% browsing by recently added. However, when I rescrape (which happens quite often), all the items obviously have the same "add" date. This is the reason I mostly browse in file mode so I can sort by (folder)date. I'm talking about rescraping the libary from scratch, not just refreshing one item, which already a known issue on trac.
Now, it would be really really great if the folder (or file) date of the movie could be added to the database, so we can sort by date in the library. I acknowledge that architecturally speaking, the physical attributes of the media has nothing to do with its meta data, but I don't see any other way. Sorting by year isn't going to do the trick, and the official release dates aren't in the database either (AFAIK).
BTW reading the blog with much interest (though a lil' late this time).
Cheers,
-freezy.
