Feature description
When restoring an app backup containing Local Device media providers, the app requests access to the folder paths for the media. This is good, as it allows easy setup of previous library.
BUT the app does not request access to the ArtistInfo folder, despite setting the path inside the Media Provider settings. So the artist metadata cannot be scanned until the user edits the Media Provider to re-add the ArtistInfo folder (thus granting access to use this folder).
It would be convenient if the app requests access to the ArtistInfo folder along with the media folders.
Problem solved
Cannot entirely restore library from an app backup because ArtistInfo folder must be refreshed manually.
Brought benefits
Users won’t need to manually set the ArtistInfo folder after restoring an app backup.
Device type
