"Manually" added movie - it gets added - then disappears - HTFanatic - 2016-04-28

I manually added a movie, and it showed up in the list of "added movies" (but it does not show up in "Recently Added Movies"),
but then when I check either my Movie "Files" or my "Library" it is not there. I do this over and over again and the same thing happens.

The funny thing is that I manually added this movie last Saturday and watched it, and then it disappeared in the list of movies when I browse by "Title".

Any thoughts?

Added by .nfo?

Within the .nfo there are a few tags: | title | originaltitle | alternativetitle | sorttitle |
Check you have used correct name in: <sorttitle>sample name</sorttitle>

With 'Recently Added Movies' (If your referring to the widget), try tag: | dateadded |
Check you have a current date: <dateadded>2016-04-29 15:00:50</dateadded>

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<movie>
    <fileinfo>
        <streamdetails>
            <video>
                <container>.mkv</container>
            </video>
            <audio />
        </streamdetails>
    </fileinfo>
    <title>sample name</title>
    <originaltitle>sample name</originaltitle>
    <alternativetitle>sample name</alternativetitle>
    <sorttitle>sample name</sorttitle>
    <dateadded>2016-04-29 15:00:50</dateadded>
</movie>

There is an Option in Kodi to 'Hide' Movies (or TV Shows), that have been watched. Uncheck that option, and they should show up in your list again.
