MP3 files not detected

[bobspiders]

Hi,

I have a few mp3 files in a folder on an SD card. All these files play well with VLC on Windows, but some of them are not seen at all by VLC on Android. In other words, if I navigate to that folder I see only some of them. Deleting and copying them again had mixed results. At some point, I even had one of these files showing up on the main music list (and playing regularly), but not showing up if I navigated to that folder. Any suggestion on what the reason may be? Thanks

Are there any special characters in the file's name? What VLC version are you using?

Do you have the ".nomedia" file in the folders in question?
