Dec 17, 2016 at 12:17 comment added Charles Roberto Canato I'd just like to add that (at least, on the Marshamallow ROM I'm using), clearing Media Storage data does work for redisplaying most files, but still there are files which don't get displayed. Yes, it's almost 2017, these are already old question and answers, and this problem still exists.

Mar 28, 2014 at 5:30 comment added user31812 @Aleks G actually this was the best and most direct (quick) instructions that worked for me. It's a good answer :). I didn't need to use SDrescan as said in the other answer, (thank goodness), and I DID need to do the exact thing this answer said - rebooting did not work in my case.
Dec 24, 2013 at 15:31 comment added Aleks G Thanks for your answer. Note however that (1) you did not add anything new that wasn't already in another answer; (2) there's no need to clear data in media storage at all; a simple reboot does the trick.
