Hi All,
I've had this niggling problem for quite some time now. Back around Christmas I put a couple of eps of Top Gear on my N900 to watch whilst away from home!
And deleted them pretty much straight after watching them! But they still appear in the Media Player library, with thumbnails, I can select to delete them as usual, and they disappear until the next time the media player is opened!
This problem persists with these two video files, despite even having to reflash my N900 when I got a never ending reboot!
Any ideas what happened and how I can fix it?
Thanks,
Dex
PS. I have watched and deleted plenty of movies since these, with no such problem!

Ok, will run that. Shouldn't the Media Player check/re-index every now and then anyway?
