If a filter was set we'd see this as a blue mark above the text Favourite.

I think I've gotten to the bottom of the WHAT is happening here, but I'm not sure what to do about it. I took two Movies set as favorites, one showing up in the list, and the other not, and compared the nfo files.
It appears that something (maybe Kodi?) is stripping the "<isuserfavorite>true</isuserfavorite>" line from the Movies that aren't showing up in the Jellyfin Favorites page. The couple that actually show up have this line, the ones that are missing lack this line.
What's odd is that Jellyfin still remembers they've been favorited (as evidenced by the red heart on the movie page), but follows the nfo file for displaying them in the list. I'm going to see if I can stop Kodi from editing the nfo files and see if it helps.

SO, just in case anyone has a similar problem in the future and is googling it, I THINK I've solved the problem.
Today things got even weirder. In addition to favorites disappearing, I was finding things I NEVER favorited (and still don't have the little red heart on the icon) are showing up in the Favorites dialog in Jellyfin. I remove them, and they'd reappear as soon as a new movie was added to the library. It occurred to me eventually that these for the most part seemed to be movies I'd interacted with in Kodi (for example, "Mark as watched", or "Reset Resume Position".
I dug into my log files, and found this, every single time:
Code:
[2024-07-22 15:17:23.352 -07:00] [INF] [29] Jellyfin.Plugin.KodiSyncQueue.EntryPoints.LibrarySyncNotification: Library Sync: Updated 23 itemsEvery time I added a file to the library, Kodi Sync Queue was adding the same 23 files back into my Favorites list.
I shut down both instances of Kodi and added a file to my library, and still, 23 movies were added back to my Favorites list.
Long story short, I uninstalled Kodi Sync Queue, rebooted the server, reinstalled Kodi Sync Queue, and the problem's gone.
[EDIT: This did not resolve the original issue (as all but 3 of my favorites have disappeared), just the weirder, I-think-related issue of any file I interacted with showing up in Favorites]
