Thumbnails cause huge memory use?

Question 
Hello,

I just installed a fresh ubuntu 7.10 with nvidia drives and checked out the latest LXBMC from svn, compiled, started, everything fine - so far so good.

I have an external HD containing all the .AVIs and DVDs witch is connected to an XP-computer. In XP the external HD is shared as a windows share. I used to access this share via SMB-protocol on the X-Box. Connection via SMB unter LXBMC worked, but LXBMC allocated approx 2 gigs of ram while creating the thumbnails and then stopped responding, but still kept allocating memory. Shocked

Also I noticed that nearly non DVD would play because for some reasons the .IFO file in the VIDEO_TS folder ist not readable. The single .VOB files could be played without a problem. I played around a little and mounting the share via mount -f smbfs worked - the same DVDs played without any problem. Oo

Anyone else experienced this?
