Playing MP3 files transfered using SCP
I have transfered whole bunch of audio files using scp onto my sd and internal memory. They do not show up in the default media player. Is there a way to force scanning for specified folders?
I have tried kmplayer and I cannot chose a folder but rather a single file. Are there any gui's that allows us to add folders to playlist? How do folks transfer large files onto the phone memory/microsd? |

I dont have this problem...I transfer with SCP around 300 mb Mp3 and all listed on my N900

Yes, they are present in the N900 but do they show up as albums when you open the media player? The OS appears to have a way of scanning and adding new audio files to its catalog.
For example, if I move files from my internal memory to microsd, they do not show in the audio catalog. Quote:

That's interesting. Probably need to check my settings. Is there a way to force the search for newly added audio files?

Code:
ls dirname/*.mp3 > dirname/playlistname.m3u Code:
scp -rp $datadir user@n900:podcasts The custom playlist is usually available in the imported namelist listing in the media player almost immediately. If you copy a lot of files to your n900, it may take a while for the tracker to index them all. Also, you should check that you are not putting the files someplace that the tracker does not index. (It checks almost everywhere.) |

tracker-processes --hard-reset /etc/osso-af-init/tracker.sh start It may take some time to refresh if you have a lot of files... |
