.Actors missing when scanning in videos - kl1k - 2013-05-29

I'm seeing a ton of these in the logs - is it something I should be concerned about? What can I do to get rid of the errors:

Code:

Don't worry about it, it's a bug in Frodo that will be fixed in Gotham - basically XBMC tries to access the.actors Folder assuming it always exists then panics when it doesn't, so in future will check first or just not report the error.

Kinda late to the part on this one but I have watchdog and XBMC is constatly "cleaning database". What's even more odd is that this only sprung up when switching from polling (ate a lot of CPU and wigged out FlexRaid) to auto. Output is:

00:47:31 T:5080 ERROR: XFILE::CDirectory::GetDirectory - Error getting V:\TV\Kitchen Nightmares US\.actors
00:47:31 T:5080 ERROR: XFILE::CDirectory::GetDirectory - Error getting V:\TV\Life (2009)\.actors
00:47:31 T:5080 ERROR: XFILE::CDirectory::GetDirectory - Error getting V:\TV\Over America\.actors
00:47:31 T:5080 ERROR: XFILE::CDirectory::GetDirectory - Error getting V:\TV\Power Rangers Turbo\.actors

This is only happening to these specific dirs and I have others in there that are fine. Can I disable .actors?
