Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

If i open a folder with some movies in nautilus (In a test case only one .wmv 
of ~40MB), not all contents are shown. I suppose nautilus is trying to make 
Thumbnails or get other meta information. If I open the folder directly (List 
view), I get an hourglass mouse cursor, but the windows does not block.
If I look into the folder by clicking the arrow between a folder icon (one 
level above), I do not get a special cursor but also do not see all files.
If I open the same folder in a second window, all contents are shown then.

Imagine you have 3 files: x.txt, z.wmv and c.jpg
You open the folder and see only x.txt and (sometimes) the hourglass cursor. 
You may decide to remove the folder and will remove content that you did not 
want to kill...

The order of files processed is not sorted. I think the problem is very
internally in the near of getting the list of files from the file
system.

File system in my case: ext3
