Bug 270307

Version:           1.9.0 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

Digikam is able to import many file types including audio files.
In the preferences there is an option to ADD more file types but no option to disable any.

Many people, like me, use camera phones for photos and many cameras phones are also mp3 players.
The result is, in order to import a couple of pictures, I have to wait for digikam to scan and load hundreds of audio files which I then have to plough through in the import window to find the particular photos I want.

Not only that, the import window also shows hundreds of album covers and even small image files from phone themes.

There should be options to disable scanning for audio files and also to disable scanning for files under a specified size.

A filter would help with regard to finding what I want but would still mean waiting for it to scan.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Connect multimedia device ie mp3/mp4 player, mobile camera phone, smart phone etc and import.

Actual Results:  
The import window appears frozen with no loading progress as it scans through hundreds of audio, video and themes/wallpapers etc.
On occasion, this freezing never appears to resolve and results in a popup asking if I want to terminate the application.

Expected Results:  
The software should have given me an option to disable scanning certain file types such as audio/video and files under a certain size.
