Description Brett Porter 2004-12-09 23:31:00 UTC 
adding a JPG file (mine are there from Windows Media Player, as this is being
loaded from r/o NTFS) causes import folder to hang on that file. Looking in
/proc/PID/fd/... shows only one file open - the JPG in question.

Note it is not NTFS or being r/o that are the problem here - the same happens
when I copy the folder to ext3 and make it r/w and import from theere. Removing
the jpg files fixes it.

I've seen another reference here: 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2358
so it needs to ensure that other files in there don't cause similar issues (eg
ini, m3u).

I'm marking this as critical as I don't really have the space to keep two copies
of the files, nor do I want to dispose of the album art

Will be fixed in next gstreamer release.
