listFolder with includeMediaInfo not listing all available files
We have a problem while integrating the v2 iOS API on our photography App.
If we call listFolder for the root folder with includeMediaInfo set to yes, fewer results are returned (e.g. recently batch uploaded photos are not included in the response).
If we set includeMediaInfo:@NO, all files are listed.
have a posted a simmilar problem here: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/API-support/new-files-not-returned-by-files-list-folder/m-p/224988#M12174
and now reading your post I tried changing my code and it does work. The API does return all new and old files correctly.
I would say that is a problem in the API.

When using includeMediaInfo, there can be a delay on results being returned while the media information is prepared.
They will get listed once the information is available, but this can take a variable amount of time, especially if there are many files or a lot of activity in the account.- "variable amount of time"
is that minutes or hours?
I've tested on 2 accounts with basically no activity.
