Description

Thank you for your hard work.
I have feature request, I think it will be great if you give material files a media sanner feature. It will be useful for media player especially those who doesn't have this feature or unable to detect media file. Probably this feature can be placed in the three dot button on the right side of folder / listed along with open with, cut, copy, delete, etc options.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the folder or file action menu and the Android media-scanning integration, then determine how the proposed action should scan material files; done means the option is available with the listed actions and detected media becomes usable by media players.
