Can anyone tell me the purpose of Tools/Options/Portable Device Sync/Configure [my desired device]/Options/File Locations/Other Media Files? A pop-up tag says they are "other directories that should be scanned for media."
I want to sync only files from a single desired location that I have selected on the Auto-Sync (-->Device) tab. I do NOT want any of those "Other Media Files" locations scanned or synced, but if I deselect them and save the device configuration, they're selected again next time I open it.
Files are syncing to my mobile device that I don't want to sync, so I'm exploring all possible reasons and I'd appreciate an explanation of this one.
What Is "Other Media Files" in Sync?

Re: What Is "Other Media Files" in Sync?
Update: I solved my sync problem by changing the path for Classical music to be the same as for all other music. Not sure why that was causing music to download that I didn't want (not all of which was Classical genre), but at least it's working correctly.
I'd still like to know the purpose of those "Other Media" checkboxes, though.
