Segmentation fault
failed!

What's wrong?
Thanx...
Restart the phone and it should work automatically.
Or you can try to run it as "user" not as "root"

Restarting didn't work, but running it as "user" did help remove the ghost files.

thanx.

hello
i got a problem with file indexing and excluding directories from tracker.cfg file.
Media player added to library all the sounds i got on the phone ie sounds from games, navigation program etc.
So i wanted to chage it.
I found this topic and did as instructed.
I add new lines in tracker.cfg and then used tracker-precess -r cmd
and it almost worked but unfortunetly media player is showing right now ringtones.
And I cant understend why.
My tracker.cfg looks like that.
Code:
[Watches]
# List of directory roots to index and watch (separator=;)
WatchDirectoryRoots=$HOME/MyDocs/.sounds/;$HOME/MyDocs/.videos/;$HOME/MyDocs/.images/;$HOME/MyDocs/.camera/;
# List of directory roots to index but NOT watch (separator=;)
CrawlDirectory=
# List of directory roots NOT to index and NOT to watch (separator=;)
NoWatchDirectory=$HOME/MyDocs/core-dumps/;$HOME/MyDocs/cities/;$HOME/MyDocs/.sounds/Ringtones/;$HOME/MyDocs/tmp/;/media/mmc1/tmp/;/media/mmc1/cities/;$HOME/MyDocs/;$HOME/MyDocs/Res/;
# Set to false to completely disable any watching
EnableWatching=true
did i missed smth ?
thanks for any advice

I've found that the thumbnails are stored in .thumbnails/cropped and the covers themself in .cache/media-art. Both of them in /home/user of course. So I deleted the entire directories and... worked!
The Media Player now shows the new album covers.
what are the command lines to delete these folders?

Before you do, please re-check on that, as my memory is flaky already

And be prepared re-indexing will take a while.

Awesome I had exactly the same problem and this solved it perfectly

the out put of tracker-stats gives nothing, and tracker-status gives paused:

Statistics:

~ $ tracker-status
Tracker status is 'Paused'


So, the solution was by issue these commands as user:

First stop the tracker:
~ $ /etc/osso-af-init/tracker.sh stop
Stopping Tracker....

and then remove the old index:
~ $ tracker-processes -r

After that you need to force the tracker to index all the files:
~ $ /usr/lib/tracker/trackerd -r

That will force it to re-build the index.

You might need to run the tracker:
~ $ /etc/osso-af-init/tracker.sh start

Now if you issue tracker-status you will see it indexing:
~ $ tracker-status
Tracker status is 'Indexing'

after finishing the indexing reboot your device.
and everything will be OK later.

That procedure works fine with me. Please test it and give us the results
Just got this no index problem from interrupting a mediamonkey auto-sync, and this fixed it.

Right on, right on.

Almost had to go to work without mah tunes.
