Following a brief discussion in the Questions forum, I have created a pair of feature requests I'd love to get more feedback on. The primary goal is to Allow users to define Recently Added settings in the Dashboard.
This means that (quick and dirty win) the number of titles for Recently Added is no longer managed in code, but as a user configurable setting in the dashboard. Allow the user to define what the cap is rather than the relatively low number currently set in code (e.g. 16 films, 5 TV shows).
The other option is to make it time-based from when the content is added to the collection, again still allowing the user to control this number in the Dashboard. If content was added new in 30 days, then display as Recently Added, else don't display in Recently Added. The number of days should be configurable, I would say up to 6-12 months.
Request 1: Increase number in code - https://features.jellyfin.org/posts/2373...ntly-added
Request 2: Allow user to define the setting themselves - https://features.jellyfin.org/posts/2374...-dashboard

Apologies for any responses that seem short/rude, on the spectrum and get frustrated very easily with technology. Do my best to keep it under wraps but doesn't always work when something isn't going as it should.
