A quick Rescan picked up the two Artist names fine, but oddly not the two Album Artist names - in fact the Album Artist details did not appear at all, either split or unsplit.

It seems I have to turn the phone off every time I want to update the Music Player file list, there is no 'rescan' option anywhere that I've found, am hoping that ICS or an interim update will fix this.I created a new file with the Artist tag set to " Artist One Artist Two" and the Album Artist tag set to " Album Artist One Album Artist Two".

So, it's been a few days since my original post and I thought it was time for an update. Very confused but hoping it has just sorted itself out - will try to add some more files later (after I've had some sleep -) and see if it picks them up straight away or if the same thing happens again, and update this post either way.

What's even more weird is that as I've been typing this, I just went to check the contents of the My Documents/Music folder and now it's got the same files as the sdcard/Music folder and the Music Player app has suddenly jumped from 11 albums to 26 (the 20 I've added plus the 6 that were already on it, only I added my files yesterday morning (about 8am on Wedneday 14th March) and it's now really early on Thursday morning and they've only just appeared in Music Player.Īnyone got any ideas what might have caused this delay? I can't find a way of making Music Player refresh its info (I was looking for an 'add file to library' type option like you get in iTunes / winamp etc) so I guess there must be some sort of background process that normally runs when you drop new files in that updates the Music Player lists, but I guess in this case it didn't run for nearly 24 hours - I hope it doesn't carry on like this!!

What's even more confusing is that on the home screen for File Expert there's an entry that says My Documents which includes entries for Images, Video, Music, Documents, APK Packages & Compresses Packages - if I select the Music option I can see a list of MP3s that is the same as the list of files shown in the Music Player app, only I've got no options to paste anything into this folder using File Expert so it seems there is some sort of sync issue between the sdcard/Music folder and whatever this folder and the Music Player app are using to populate themselves.


I guess one is a symlink to the other or somesuch.? (I'm a complete Linux noob, just started playing around with Fedora 16 LXDE a couple of weeks ago.) I've been following the SD Card option to get to mnt/sdcard/Music but if I follow the Phone Internal Storage path I can get to /sdcard/Music which seems to have exactly the same files in it as mnt/sdcard/Music.

I'm also confused by the fact that when I start up File Expert and select My Files I get a list with two entries - SD Card or Phone Internal Storage. I've used File Expert to copy the files from my NAS drive via WIFI and have added them to the mnt/sdcard/Music folder but when I go the the My Music tab of Music Player, it only lists 11 of the 19 albums i've added so far. I just got my Xperia S on Monday, I'm loving it so far but am perplexed by one issue - Music Player is only showing some of the files that I've added to the 'Music' folder.
