Smart playlist problems - CHINCB - 2012-10-17

Ok guys I have given up hope of fixing this myself.

My smart playlists dont want to work, they have several problems.

1) I cant delete a playlist form within XBMC
2) i created a playlist pointing to a path but it doesn't pick up any videos in the folder although I know they are there

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<smartplaylist type="episodes">
    <name>Bumper comedy</name>
    <match>all</match>
    <rule field="path" operator="startswith">D:\Bumpers\Comedy\</rule>
</smartplaylist>

That is the playlist I have but yea it's not working,

using XBMC eden with standard skin.

Please help...

1. Enable file deletion in settings.
2. Are they in the library?

Yes the folder has been added to my Library as video type none (not really any scraper going to get info on a channel bumper)
