I don't have those folders, and it works fine for me.

I just have epubs on the card (non-series in the main root folder of the folder, one subfolder per series). It shouldn't cause problems.

A bad file could possibly cause something like that, which is one reason why I put everything on SD card, since you can take it out easily, not so easy when it gets stuck on something in the internal memory.

The Story HD has a debug log feature. If you create an empty file with the name "enable_syslog" in the root of the internal memory, it will write debug messages to a dump_syslog.txt

In that debug log the updating of the database looks like this:

Code:
Feb 24 11:57:25 lni local0.info flow: ++DBManager::Generation_BookDB (internal, bSD) (0, 1)
Feb 24 11:57:25 lni local0.info flow: ++DBManager::Shutdown
Feb 24 11:57:27 lni local0.info flow: --DBManager::Shutdown
Feb 24 11:57:27 lni local0.info flow: ++DBManager::Startup
Feb 24 11:57:27 lni local0.info flow: --DBManager::Startup
Feb 24 11:57:27 lni local0.info flow: ++DBManager::Shutdown
Feb 24 11:57:28 lni local0.info flow: --DBManager::Shutdown
Feb 24 11:57:28 lni local0.info flow: ++DBManager::Startup
Feb 24 11:57:29 lni local0.info flow: --DBManager::Startup
Feb 24 11:57:29 lni local0.info flow: --DBManager::Generation_BookDB : 3124 ms
Feb 24 11:57:29 lni local0.info flow: flow_flush_gc : flag = 2
It's a slim chance but maybe if there's a problem there'd be an error message in there.

Make sure to remove the enable_syslog file afterwards, as otherwise it will keep filling up your internal memory and I don't want to know what happens when it runs out of space.
