Music apps can't find my music!

[kramer2718]

Hi guys,

I am using a GT N 7100 v 4.1.2 of Android and Windows 7.

I have been mounting the phone via USB and copying music to the music folder on my device.

So far so good no problem. I can open up one of several media players (samsung, winamp, vlc) and play my music.

Then today I downloaded some new tunes and copied them to my device the same way. I opened up each application and none of them saw my music.

I installed another free music player. It didn't play them either.

I remounted my phone in windows viewed and played the files no problem. Then I navigated to the music folder on my device using the file browser and they were there. Even stranger, they would play through the various apps that didn't see them!

Any ideas?

What format is the new files? Also a reboot might help.

They are MP3s. Restarting did not help.
