group?) to an empty directory, let it scan and clear out everything, then
change the directory back to the original setting and scan again. If you
have multiple systems you may need to do this on each system. If you have a
phantom hostname with videos attached to it, you may need to use the
hostname override to temporarily set a frontend to that phantom hostname,
then do the scan on an empty directory.
