Canola provides the best solution for local stored media consumption. It will scan and index all your memory cards' media in its database and then provide you an easy way to browse it. The fun doesn't end there! A brief list of some Canola features:

Dynamic playlists
Podcast streaming (no download support in the current version)
Internet Radio stations streaming
Importing of .m3u and .pls playlists
Preview and slideshow of pictures
Album art support a .jpg on the folder or a embedded one in the id3 tag
