Let me try to sum up what you just described.

  
- After reinstalling, you had problems scanning the library.
- It worked after you changed permissions for all folders and
  subfolders.
- Now you copied new stuff in it and it is not found.
  

Do these new files by any chance have different permissions than the old
ones?

If you want to wipe the library, you have to wipe the cache folder
(minus "InstalledPlugins"), but be aware that this could bring
unforeseen consequences if you use plugins (Spotty, for example) that I
don't.
