I have had regular problems with my S7 heating up and battery draining rapidly.
Checking battery stats showed media server as being the main thing pulling on battery.
Did a search on google and found several posts indicating this as being a common issue.
Tried all of the solutions mentioned, removed my sd card, reformatted it in phone, scanned all of the music files on it using mp3val app on my pc, It found and fixed many errors but problem still happened,
I stopped media storage app and deleted all data, reboot and reset phone but still had the same problem.
Several posts indicated that google chrome could be the problem, now i happen to love chrome, use it across all of my devices and love how it syncs my bookmarks etc.
Anyway, being totally frustrated i decided to disable it and try another browser.
I happened to choose Opera mini, anyway now about 4 days later and i have not had one instance of media server even showing in my battery stats as using any battery.
Have used my phone as normal and whereas before i was lucky if i got 14 hours from it, i came to bed last night with my battery still showing 82% after a normal days use.
I cannot believe or understand how chrome can be the cause of this but without a doubt it definitely is, so if you are having media server show as cause of most battery use, try disabling chrome and use another browser.
Good luck.
