If you want a GUI I have written one that is in extras-devel called tracker-cfg.

And yes, the entire MyDocs directory is indexed, this is because it counts as a removable device.
I also had the problem of extra audio files appearing in Media Player after installing Sygic Mobile Maps and Extra Decoders Support.

I edited the tracker.cfg file manually and added the additional folders to the NoWatch list, ran 'tracker-processes -r' and rebooted but Media Player would still show the additional audio files.

I then installed the 'tracker-cfg' app. It showed the additional folders I had already added manually. I didn't change anything except I selected 'Rebuild Databases' and it worked perfectly.

Thank you demiurgus
