I make some search and believe this issue is related to MediaStore API.

Yes, it's related. When an app or tool move media files on Android storage, it should call the right APIs so that Media Store is aware of them. Otherwise, apps that rely on the Media Store (like Aves) won't list them as media.

Is it possible to fix this issue?

The issue is on the side of these apps and tools that move media without letting Media Store know about it. Tools that force a rescan (like SD Scanner) are useful but they're a band-aid after the fact.
