I experienced a similar problem; KimDaBa didn't seem to like some file names. 
I can't remember exactly why, but I guess it was because of apostrophes. You 
can try to use a search tool to find and rename such files.

You can also wait and see if somebody comes up with another suggestion (can 
50,000 pictures be too much?) :-)
