Add a re-fetch button (in settings?) to force a refresh of scheduled media

@sircharlo What about adding the re-fetch button right in the Media sync window? For example one button for all ERROR media. This way it's really intuitive and allows to solve the problem right away [by any brother at the computer] instead of investigating into the settings options [and asking the specific brother who knows where to look at]:

What about adding the re-fetch button right in the Media sync window?

1. Additionally, to solve the missing media anxiety in cases when re-initiating the sync won't help (e.g. media not yet available), M³ could show the meeting date for each media in the 'errors' section.Either on hover or with a smaller description-like text underneath.

This will let users see that the error is not for today's meeting, but rather a few weeks later, so they won't have to worry. Plus, the media naming is not humanly-readable, making it harder to troubleshoot errors by searching for a iifa12-p2.mp4 in the Library for example. But having the date will allow you to simply go to that date on a mobile device, and find out that one of the media items is not yet available.

2. Also, maybe some kind of "Try later" button would make sense in this setup. Let's say, a missing media is not yet available and it's 4 weeks away. Then by clicking "Try later" the media will try to sync in 7 days once again, but at least it won't show the error state on the sync button, giving more peace of mind to AV operators.
