Newly added Movies are not added to the "Recently added" Section on the Start Page

I believe Jellyfin will use the creation date, not the modify date. If you use the "stat" command on a file this is the "birth" field. AFAIK, there is no way to change the "birth" time of a file. You have to make copies of the files and then replace the original files with the copies.

Also, once it is added to the library my testing has shown that the existing "recent" list doesn't change. You'd have to either recreate the library or remove content from the library folder, scan to remove, move the content back into the library folder, and rescan to re-add it.
