    This has happened to me on more than 1 occasion.  The solution i used (albeit probably not the best) was to simply remove all references to the path in the sqllite database.  Stop the container first to make sure Jellyfin isn't running, then if you have sqlite installed for your distro just run the following command (altering the paths to your personal requirements)

    Code:
    sqlite3 "/jellyFin/config/data/library.db" "DELETE from TypedBaseItems where path like '%pathToRemove%';" ".exit"
