I lost something like 74 movies. Thankfully a lot of them were pretty dire! But needless to say my faith in this application is rather shaken.

NO ONE DELETE ANY MOVIES THROUGH EMBER MEDIA MANAGER FOR NOW
Ok, I've done some experimenting and it seems that this bug occurs when you have multiple movies that start with the same characters. For instance, I had files named:
a.avi
ab.avi
abc.avi
abcd.avi
when I deleted a.avi, it also proceeded to delete the other 3 files.
Really sorry for this! The bug is confirmed and beeing looked at the moment.
However this can only happen in case you store all your movies in the same folder instead of having all your movies in its own/separate folder.
BTW, non of the Devs/testers are "organized" their collection in this way, so that's why such a huge bug can still exist in Ember.
(My personal opinion is that neither XBMC, nor Ember should support such a frugal way of structuring. I strongly recommend to all of you to use the "sort files into folders" tool of Ember and stop storing everything in a single folder.)
