I have added songs to the SD card in my Fairphone. Initially, certain songs did not appear in the music player, but the majority did. A few days ago, several of the songs that did appear in the music player are not appearing anymore. All songs can be found in the amaze map, and can be played one by 1 from there. So:
Music from the SD card does not appear in the music player
Several music albums initially appeared in the music player, but disappeared afterwards
All songs can by played 1 by 1 when accessing them through Amaze
If anyone has any suggestions on how to solve this, that would be great.
Hi Werner, thanks.
In one way or another the files which were previously there, and then got
lost, are back again. There was no difference in naming (two albums from
same artist, same naming, same file type *.wma4).
I’ll keep on looking for other possible differences. I read somewhere
something on mp3tag, does that make sense?
Have you tried to unmount and then remount your sd card in settings > storage?
This could trigger a scan of your media files.
If that doesn’t help, unmount sd card, open settings > apps > all, look for an app named “media storage” (or similar, my menus are German) and delete data and cache. Reboot the phone.
This should reinitialize the database and force a fresh scan.
Give it some time to run and finish.
