Bug Description

Adding wmv or mp4 files cause mediascanner to break:

mediascanner-service[1297]: ERROR error/fs-walker: Content discovery fa
iled for "/home/phablet/Music/0193_cityscapefog.mp4": gst-stream-error-quark(9):
 This file contains no playable streams.

After that, mediascanner does not react to any more fs changes. Only removing the added (failing) media and restarting mediascanner solves the issue.
