Problem with WMP

anyone have experience this problem?
Sometime I cannot select library from SD card eventhough I have MP3 file on my SD card and already update the library (there's no option to select SD card). But If I access the SD card using file explorer it appear.
When I format the SD card and update library then the SD card option will appear.
Does anyone can solve this Problem?
Please help

Hi, try to erase wmp files on your device and the SD card:

on your device: /Application Data/Microsoft/Media Player
on SD card: /MSMETADATA
/WMPInfo
i also erase music folder but i don't know if it's necesary
after that try to sync something with your windows media player on your PC

Problems copying music files to Storage Card

I've got hold of a new MicroSD card, class 2 16Gb.
I've got about 6Gb of music which I want to copy across but I am having huge problems.
Firstly I tried using Windows Media Player sync function - but it only works for about 20 tracks and then stalls.
Copying the files directly using 'Disk' or 'ActiveSync' settings - look like everything is OK, but when I look at some of the contents of the folders they have wierd/scrambled names.
What is really puzzling me, is that I have both quick, and full, formatted the SD Card and the same folders are always messed up. I have tried every combination of copy method I can think of!!! The files are fine on my PC.
Copying the backup of the contents of my old SD Card onto the new one works fine.
Anyone else had this? Is it my SDCard that is screwed? Please Help!!!

no it's active sync and media player that are screwy. for best results put the card in a card reader on your pc, or if not available when connecting the phone to pc choose disk drive mode and copy it that way.

I'd say you got a faulty / "fake" card.

Cache files for media library?

yesterday i had a severe problem with the standard media applications (video/musicplayer and gallery).
none of them would show me any of my media files when started.
the video player said "no sd card inserted", the musicplayer crashed with "music database to large" right after i started it and the gallery showed no pictures at all.
i was able to start a video by directly clicking on it within the filemanager.
i removed the external sd card, but this behaviour did not change after that.
than i copied all content from the internal sd card to the external sd card, formatted the internal sd card within the phone and than moved all the files back from the external to the internal sd card.
i did NOT overwrite any files that were created after formatting the card.
this finally helped and the media applications now work again as before.
my guess is, that the media database somehow got corrupted and therefore i would like to know the file names where the database is stored.
than, if this happens again, i can just delete the relevant files.

Its a hidden file in /mnt/sdcard/.gallerycache/ delete that and media scanner should rebuild the cache.

Media on internal storage not being picked up

Any media files I put on the internal storage are not being picked up by either the video player or music player. I can still access/play these files through the file manager. Any ideas on what could be wrong?
Thanks

Try Rescan Media by Aditya Talpade on the Market, solved the same problem for me.
There are two versions of the app one for rooted phones and one not.

Thanks, but that did not work.
The media scanner works and does pickup media on a microsd, but not on the internal storage.
I put a video file in the /sdcard folder of the internal storage and not the subfolders. Now the video application picks it up. Any idea what may be wrong with the subfolders? I did do a format of the internal storage.

Do you have a rogue .nomedia file lying in any of your subfolders?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Not in the usbStorage folder. There are .nomedia files in other subfolders.

You cant put anything in the /sdcard folder that's the folder that becomes the external micro sd card when you disconnect/unmount the drives.
Just make a new folder in the root of the internal storage and call it whatever you like. Then put your videos in there.

So just make folders in the /sdcard/usbstorage for media?
Just to confirm, what is the proper procedure for loading media onto the internal storage? Connect with usb utilities, copy media, disconnect?

Connect your phone in mass storage mode to PC.
Open Phone via windows explorer .
Make new folder video
Copy a few videos in to this folder .
Via file explorer on phone locate and open a video in this folder .
Should now see them as normal .

[Q] Music Files not detected by Google Play Music

i have a typical issue in my Yureka.
Google play music doesn't detect music/Mp3 files automatically from External Storage i.e., SD Card. Recently I downloaded few Mp3 songs using UC browser and these are stored in a folder named "UC downloads" in the Internal Storage and Google play detects the music files from UC downloads folder and not from SD Card.
Pls note, i have many mp3 songs already stored in SD card, but Google play music doesn't show the music files from SD Card.
Now my question is, why the Google play music doesn't detect the music files which are stored in External Storage i.e., SD Card?
And also, i have nearly 200 images & videos stored in SD Card, but Gallery doesn't detect these images & videos which are in SD Card..
