I have a folder with various folders and subfolders where I don't want my content to be scanned.
Inside that folder I have put a .nomedia file to prevent media scanning.
Now, **I have a single folder (with music) what I do it to get scanned**.
Is it possible to do something like writing a ".media" file or setting an exception on the .nomedia file?

How do I speed up media scanning?
When putting new music files or images onto the sd card of my android phone, android needs to scan for new files. Is there any way to speed up this process? E.g. putting all files in one directory? Currently I organized my music this way: `music/artists/albums/files.mp3` Any suggestions?
