Comment 19 for bug 123460

I managed to find the cause of my problem. I had "Watch my library for new files" selected in preferences. I'm not sure whether the samba share was the problem, or whether it was the fact that I have many files in my directory that are not music files and hence have no ID3 information (specifically the album art Windows creates for music files and the thumbs.db windows creates for thumbnails in a directory). Either way, turning this option off seems to give me a workaround for this issue. The problem could likely be resolved if you could create a filter that ignores files of certain types. Hope this helps others who are having this issue.
