Every time a file is moved, Jellyfin will see it as a new file. My guess is an issue with the database. From the duplicates, can both be played? If not, can you open the metadata from Jellyfin's GUI to see which path it originates from on your server?
Could you cause the issue again so that Jellyfin writes down what happens in the logs. Then could you share the logs here by using pastebin?
Also in case you didn't know, since moved files are treated as new files, you will lose watched & favorite statuses for them. The files will also be lost from any collections or playlists you saved them in since they're at a new path from what they were originally. And finally, currently, their chapters and trickplay files (if you enabled them) will have to be regenerated too as those will be lost.
If you want to keep that type of data intact, you'll have to make sure to add them to collections/playlists, or mark them as watched/favorited after they've been transfered to their final resting place.
