Thanks guys for your input.
I made several tests last night. Given the weird behaviour I thought the problem was when the folder had too many files and the memory of the camera couldn't cope with it. So I tested with 200 photos and erasing 100 random JPG files. And it worked like a charm! It took like one minute but no hanging.
But then I did the same 200 photos but erasing only one JPG and the camera frizzed.
I will try to change the searching method (may be several partial searches instead of one big loop), I still think there is a problem with the camera's memory but unfortunately I don't understand how things work at low level so may be another developer has a clue. May be there is a way to know state of the memory, if it is full etc.
I'll let you know when I have a new build.
Any clues developers?
This is the Purge RAW function code, three main parts:
1.- is executed when erasing everything in DCIM folder
2.- is executed when a Canon folder is selected
3.- is executed when you call the function in the file list
