Bug Description

The gallery-app shows all pictures on the phone by default. If you put many music files incl. CD-Covers or OSM-cards (thousands of files) for uNav on the SD-card, the gallery-app becomes very slow or nearly unusable.

Note that you can prevent mediascanner from scanning a directory by putting the file ".nomedia" in it. This will obviously only work for OSM-maps, as CD covers usually are located in directories with music files that mediascanner needs find.
