Bug Description

If the user don't have the correct gstreamer plugins installed to play MP3 (-ugly, -bad), mediascanner-2 does not scan MP3 files.

The application does not give any feedback to the user about the missing plugins, the only information given is:

"Error when indexing: Unable to discover file /home/ara/Music/Beach_House_Bloom/06-beach_house-troublemaker.mp3"
