Ciao, Joacim.
Too much since I 'played' with low level calls, so I may be wrong. But
it seems to me you're opening the image and monitoring for changes the
directory. Hence the problem. If you read/write a file, I think the
directory does not result as modified (but you should experiment by
yourself).
