What does running the following command show?
Code:
gsettings get org.freedesktop.Tracker.Miner.Files index-recursive-directories
I think that people are overcomplicating things. Virtually the only thing you have to change to automount btrfs sdcards is to remove the uid=X,gid=X settings from the mount-sd.sh script. This is a much simpler modification that what people are doing over that thread, which is probably the result of a misunderstanding of some kind. Additionally, I suspect this change will come with a future SailfishOS update.
Everything -- including Tracker and thus the Music application -- works afterwards.

- Right-click the USB-drive and select "Properties"
- Select the "Hardware"-tab
- Find and select your USB-memory in the list
- Click the "Properties"-button below
- Select the "Policies"-tab on the new requester
- Choose "Optimize for performance"
- Click "OK" on the requesters
But remember, FAT32 only allows files up to 4GB in size and can't handle soft-links or permissions. Trasferring files over network and formatting as ext3/4 makes the microSD much more useful.
Also I have formatted to ext4 on ubuntu, but phone still can't see it...
P.S. Ok successfully formatted to ext4 -> created 2 folders -> inserted to the phone -> trying to see this folders on the phone (file manger), but it not show them, it go to system sdcard..
I did the same with FAT32 and now I really see it on the phone, but when I connect my phone to PC as mass storage, I can't see this card... Why ?
But I can see it on WinSCP via wifi (/run/user/100000/media/sdcard/test777)

Sorry about the trick not working on Windows 7. I used it on Windows XP, my Windows 7-machine allows me to use FAT32 freely for some reason.

First try to make a proper btrfs formatting. There is no need for a p1 (partition).
So just use:
and after creating /mnt/btrfs using
you should be able to mount your card just fine.

One great feature of btrfs is that you can create btrfs file systems on unformatted hard drives, i.e., you don't have to use tools like fdisk to make a partition first.
Code:
mkfs.btrfs -L mylabel /dev/mmcblk1
Code:
mkdir /mnt/btrfs
Code:
mount /dev/mmcblk1 /mnt/btrfs

Also, this is not a btrfs "feature" at all -- not having a partition table is something that's called superfloppy and is at least decades old.
It is something of a personal preference mostly.

If so, could you please tell me what I must type?
I'm used to Bash and Linux commands, but I've never formatted anything before, and I want to be sure I don't screw up
Thank you in advance ^^

Also, that thread and this, they seriously overlap.
PS: I've also a 64gb card.
