Hi,

I have following problem. I have a pretty big music collection on my SD card and there are also album art images. All these images are displayed in Galery or QuickPic. I want to tell the media scanner not to scan for images in this folder. Is it possible?

I know you can put a file called .nomedia in any directory and it will be excluded from media scanning. But I want to exclude only images and scan for audio files. Is it possible?

Thank you for the suggestion, but unfortanately it doesn't suite my needs. It only allows me to select pictures from directories one by one. With thousands of directories it is something I don't want to do. I checked other similar tools but they worked the same way. They didn't let me to exclude from galery a whole directory with all subdirectories. Do you know any tool which ca do it?
