Question: should I delete the Library that is empty?
Where is this option for renaming the files that I cannot find anymore?


cochinada:
Well, I've deleted the 'empty' Library.

Now I think I found that rename option again.
I had to exit from Tools and select on the left my 'Popular' albuns under 'Audio'.
Then I think this should be the correct option to use as my data volume in Linux is called '/media/joaquim/New Volume'

cochinada:
It didn't work.  ::)

My '(Various Artists)' folder is now gone.

Is still on disk but not on the Library anymore...

Actually it should be '/media/joaquim/New Volume/' (missed a '/' at the end)

Nevertheless, after applying this operation to my entire Popular folder, all its content is gone.
Moreover, after I closed and reopen MC I have again the blank screen.

There is something very wrong with this Linux version and if I can't use it then I would like my money back.

After this text everything becomes blank.

BryanC:
Two quick notes:

1. You need to be using the "Update database" mode of the Rename, Move and Copy tool so you aren't actually moving your files around, only the database references to them. That's in the dropdown in the upper left of the tool.

2. It looks like you are launching into Theater View. Check your startup options so that you launch into Standard View instead. To exit Theater View, try hitting the Esc key a few times.

Once you get into a working configuration then maybe we can help diagnose your Theater View issues. I'd also recommend just restoring the library itself, and not the settings when moving from Windows->Linux (uncheck the settings option in the restore dialog). While technically possible it's more reliable to start with the Linux defaults so you aren't applying Windows path references in the settings configuration. If your library backup also starts up into Theater View by default then this would prevent that setting from carrying over, as well.
