all my media became "unknown album"

I had a few songs on an sd cards for which playback started and stopped after a few seconds (xperia x). So I decided to delete the tracker database with the settings utilities. Now all my tracks are from an "unknown artist" and are in an "unknown album". This makes listening to specific music very difficult with the media app.

@coderus that's what created the problem with me... Anyway, doing it a second time apparently fixed it, Thank you!

@coderus well... I started the media application soon after cleaning the cache... It had 0 files indexed at the beginning, but I could see the number of files grew in time. Only, they were recognized as music and added to the db, but with no tags. Odd.
