    Who is the owner of the folder?

    You should be the owner of all the folders, media the group owner, with 770 permissions on the folder. IIRC, if you are the owner of the folder you can delete files owned by other users in that folder. And since Jellyfin is part of the media group, it can write to the folders. Since it isn't the owner of the folder it can't delete files owned by other users.
