    Hi.

    I had some movie files in the shared documents folder. Because I had seen some of those movies I deleted the files and put other new movies in that folder. I run QuickPlay inside Windows XP and everything was OK. Then, just to show my wife my new computer was so nice, I turn-it off and then on via the QuickPlay buttons. Surprise, the files that QuickPlay Direct shows are the ones I had before the deletion process. I was so amazed I tried to view one off the movies I had deleted just a few minutes early, and the second surprise arose, QuickPlay Direct shows me the movie. I turned the computer off and then on again, now via the normal on/off button and the third surprise and most unpleasant came: the computer didn’t start up, at some point in the start up process windows blue screens kept showing. I tried to recover the system but it kept failing, so I had to do a destructive recovery and I lost all my files.

    Next I installed the system again and I have tested again the QuickPlay Direct. Again it continues to list deleted files and does not list fresh copied files.

    Is this problem mine or there are a hiden bug with quickplay?

    Thanks
