the files in question are located in

/media/phablet/<sdcard-id>/Music
/home/phablet/Music

Blacklisting those folders might do to as a quickfix? Perhaps in
addition to ignoring files named ".folder.png" and ".folder.jog" as
Michi pointed out?

Title:
  Provide a way to hide images from a particular location

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in gallery-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in mediascanner2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've put about 30GB of music in my SD card. Some of the music files
  don't have embedded cover art and their folders contain those cover
  art images.

  When I then opened the Gallery app, I noticed I now have thousands of
  "pictures" imported from the cover art images showing up in my Events
  and Pictures tabs, cluttering the real pictures I've taken with the
  camera.

  Is there a way to tell either mediascanner or the Gallery app to
  ignore a path and not import/show the images there? E.g. similar to
  Android, where you can put a .nomedia file in a folder and its images
  won't show up in the picture viewer.
