    I'm kicking off a JellyFin instance and after creating a Movie and TV library, noticed that a selection of media was always "pinned" at the top of "recently added". Come to find out that I had a number of folders and files with future created dates. No clue how that happened. Anyway, after bulk editing the file creation dates, I went to refresh all metadata in hopes to replace the "date added" field in the JellyFin metadata with the new file created date. Alas, it didn't take. It did actually work for some but others remain locked on the future date.

    For TV, I deleted the entire library and created a new one. That did it. But for movies, I'm about 3 weeks into trickplay creation and after curating a number of collections, I'd reeeeeallly like to avoid deleting this library.

    Are there any solutions for manually bulk editing jellyfin metadata?
    Is there a way to force Jellyfin to update this "date added" field without deleting the entire library?

    Thanks!
