many errors of 'I/O error (win32 #4)' while scanning big libra

Hi,

I tried foobar 1.3.1 and added a network share to scan the files. There are more than 30.000 files located but foobar doesn't scan the library proper. It stops scanning after a while and doesn't crawl all files.
Logfile shows thousands of errors like...

Location not parsable: "L:\music\Hannes\Blood, Sweat & Tears\Spinning Wheel\01-Touch Me.mp3", reason: I/O error (win32 #4)
Location not parsable: "L:\music\Hannes\Blood, Sweat & Tears\Spinning Wheel\02-Alone.mp3", reason: I/O error (win32 #4)
Location not parsable: "L:\music\Hannes\Blood, Sweat & Tears\Spinning Wheel\03-Velvet.mp3", reason: I/O error (win32 #4)

Repeating the scan increases the overall number of files in the database.
Playing files from that share works flawless.
Is there a limitation of entries in the database? win error #4 seems to be 'too many open files'? Could this be fixed in foobar?

Regards,

Christian
