What is Extended Media Scanner?

A scanner to scan FLAC or cue sheet music files and add them to Android's database.

Android "features" the annoying limitation of not being able to properly handle FLAC tags. This application allows to work around the issue, have your players properly index your FLAC albums. You need Meridian Media Player Pioneer to play them, or any other player.

Scan requires time and will launch after each time Android's MediaScanner, if you don't see your files, wait a while. It may seem that the programme does nothing and hangs forever, but after running it check to see if your .flac collection is available in media players.

It might be possible that for this to work you need to use EasyTag (or similar) to add ID3 tags along FLAC tags in your .flac files.
