Comment:

 This is not so much a bug as a side effect of intentional design. The
 video library generates a hash of all content in the library, in order to
 be able to properly detect moved files and keep the existing metadata
 attached to them. Only one instance of a given hash is allowed to exist at
 any time, so when the same file exists in two locations, it bounces back
 and forth between them on each scan. This is planned to be fixed for 0.27.
