Bug Description
Opening for example:
Video->
you get an error message saying that the directory is empty saying:
"This folder does not contain any video files"
The same happens for audio and pictures. The target directory already contain media files, but they are not yet scanned.
I think elisa should have a 'fast directory scanner' just by getting file extensions instead of doing gst-typefind everywhere and just show icons and a number specifying how many of them there are. For example
(music icon) 30 songs
(video icon) 20 movies
(picture icon) 384 pictures
At least , the user will get some feedback about whats there. And will also serve to add music directories from the video menus, or so, because it is quite tedious to go forward/backward all the time to add different filetype directories.
