Media inaccesible could be due to multiple reason like renaming of media, deleting media or unmounting partition/device which is kind of deletion of media for my computer.

If files being unplayable due to missing codecs, a different message has to be shown. If we wrote a message generic enough to cover both cases, it would be too generic to be of any value to the user.
