*Solved* MP3's copy themselves when uploaded to s3

[Toosploos]

For the last couple of days any mp3 that I load onto my s3 (i9300, rooted, checkrom v6) is mysteriously doubled. For the first hour after uploading it will show up as one mp3, and then all of a sudden it is doubled. Both these files are playable too. Is this a JB bug? Anyone know how to solve this?

I'm using the n7 player, but the stock playershows the same problem. The weird thing is that when I use a file manager to look at the mp3's in the folder, all the files are singles as they should be.

Anyone knows whats going on here?

*Edit: Solved*

For anyone who encounters this problem: it's a Jelly Bean bug, doesnt just happen with mp3's, but can happen with any media file like pics and ringtones. The solution:
1:Clear data for 'Media Storage' (in the app manager)
2: reboot (it will look like you lost all your files. You didn't. Proceed.)
3: Unmount ext sd card, wait a minute - mount again
4: reboot and all should be good

Bump - Anyone?

I've noticed that when I update a track tag, but not the filename and then re-upload onto my phone it will occasionally cause my music players to think there are duplicates. Maybe try cleaning out the cache?

Thanks for your reaction, appreciate it. Unfortunately clearing the cache didn't do it. I think the problem might be with my ext sd card. MP3's that I put on the phone's memory do not duplicate - it's only the ones on my external memory card that double. I guess i will try reformatting that bastard - and re-upping the 15 gig of music on there. Pffff....
