I think this is a traditional USB sync issue with MTP. MMA observes file changes (MMW writes file as a flag) and MMA starts USB sync(deletion of the file in this case). Also, the Android system can detect missing files then -> updates MediaStore -> and then MMA updates its library. If "new/changed media" does not work, it means MediaStore is not updated yet and it means AndroidSystem does not know about deleted files. Usually, reconnection of usb cable will help in these cases. Unfortunately, I don't think that MMA or MMW can do something more about this. |
