    Well... I finally solved my problem. It turns out then when adding the network shares to the Jellyfin docker config, I had simply copied and pasted the file path, thinking that would be sufficient. It looks like Unraid/Jellyfin doesn't work like that. After find the timestamped portion of this video: https://youtu.be/RaNayscmO9A?t=145 I noticed that when he clicked on the folder he had a dropdown to select the appropriate share.

    So I went back into the Jellyfin config, and this time cleared the field and selected the correct folder structure via the auto-populated dropdown menu. Once I had done this, I went back into the Jellyfin Web Interface, removed the old (erroneous) libraries, and selected the correct ones. This time I no longer have that weird colon at the beginning of the library name and it no longer ends in ":ro".

    So everything is working now! Hopefully this helps if someone else has this same issue down the road.
