Kodi crashes if Watchdog scans files that are being written? - zuckedoff - 2015-01-29

I believe that Watchdog is causing Kodi to crash if it scans files that are in the process of being written (for example, by uTorrent). I started downloading some episodes of Parks and Recreation to my library, and then Kodi crashed a few minutes later during the download. My log file immediately before the crash:

Any chance someone can look into this? I had to disable Watchdog, which means I have to manually update my entire database every time I get a new episode :-(
