@Filly I have encountered this same issue on a Windows share, and have discussed this with @Komet, and it is a long standing issue that doesn't work.
What I do, is when I add new stuff to my library using MediaElch, I simply tell Kodi to "Update Video Library" and if I am updating a Movie or TV Show (new artwork, or bio, etc), then in Kodi, I do a "Clean Video Library" first, and when it's finished, I perform a "Update Video Library".
One trick I found, was that you can automate "Clean and Update Video Library" tasks, so I have them do a "Clean" at 2am in the morning, and a "Update" at 4am in the morning. So every day, my Kodi data is nice and fresh.
Of course If I add a show that I want to watch right away, then I have to do a manual "Update" but that usually only takes a few minutes, so not bad.
