I think it's not totally off-topic, since my question is still about a problem concerning OMP, so I dare to not open a new thread and ask here:
How do I make Tracker ignore that directory?
Aren't ALL the standard folders in MyDocs on emmc hidden by default (which has always struck me as totally weird)? If so, I don't think they'd get ignored, because the file manager does show them (Maemo stock fm shows them without a period, in Filebox it's there).
To edit tracker ignore list in a nice easy way install 'trackercfg' by nicolai. Through it you can set all trackers options.

Tracker has always worked great for me. I have found if you do not try to restrict it (low memory mode+throttling) and just let it finish its stuff quickly then I have no problems.

Also, disable content indexing.

The only problem I have had was thumbnailerd throwing a fit at a broken thumbnail, however that was over a year and a half ago when I was still a freman(tle)oob.

If you stop tracker from indexing one of your sources, then you will have to rebuild the database evertime you want to switch sources.
