I am sure I have seen this posted elsewhere, but it bears repeating:
Last night I deleted a video file from the video library UI, and as it was the only file in the directory, I moved up to the top "directory..." icon and pressed delete. I realised what I had done a couple of seconds later when the MVP crashed out to "Cannot find UI" (or whatever it says) and I remembered the earlier post.
When I checked the GBPVR folder, there were only a handful of files remaining - presumably those that were in use when I pressed the self-destruct.
Good news though is that all meda files appear intact, so it's only a matter of a few hours doing a reinstall. PITA, but not a catastrophe.
Moral of the tale:
a) Don't delete the directory while you are still in it... :/
