"That log file indicates that you might be missing some codecs, because
some of your mp3 files fail on indexing. You might want to install
gstreamer1.0 plugin packages "bad" and/or "ugly"."

I have those packages installed since always.

"Mediascanner must scan the files or they can't be queried by the music
scope or the music player app."

Since I never truly used Music Scope, (not even believe it to be useful
for me) uninstall Mediascanner was a better solution - of course in my
case.

"Mediascanner remembers what files you had on the volume and the next
time you plug it in it only scans what has changed."

Actually Mediascanner never properly scanned my internal hard drive
(before uninstalling, of course), so Music Scope showed only a few files
from my collection.
