Awesome Donkey:
Actually, since you probably have a Musica folder in the root and to avoid a Musica/Musica directory kind of thing, substitute Musica with another term, like Multimedia or Media or whatever you want as long as it's a single word with no spaces to avoid another potential annoyance.

1) Run this command in a terminal (if you use a different word than Multimedia here, substitute it):


--- Code: ---sudo mkdir /media/joaquim/Multimedia/ && sudo chmod 777 /media/joaquim/Multimedia/
--- End code ---

2) Unmount the disk in the Disks app.

3) In Edit Mount Options uncheck User Session Defaults, set Mount Point to the following (again, change the word Multimedia if you used a different word here)...


--- Code: ---/media/joaquim/Multimedia/
--- End code ---

4) Select OK and it'll ask for your password. Once back in the Disks app, select the partition and where the stop (unmount) button was, there's a play (mount) button. Press it and input your password when it prompts, if set correctly your disk should mount at the new location.

This is the next part in Media Center, in the Rename, Move and Copy tool.

1) Import a library backup (if you haven't already). I would actually suggest starting fresh and clearing your current library then re-importing another library backup to start this process over. Make sure you select all your files then select Rename, Move and Copy (or press F6 to open the tool). Of course like above, if you used a different word than Multimedia, substitute it...

Find what: D:\

Replace with: /media/joaquim/Multimedia/

Now, if you've decided not to start fresh and try to modify your existing (potentially mixed up) library that has some paths changed to the New Folder location you'll have to use it a second time...

Find what: /media/joaquim/New Volume/

Replace with: /media/joaquim/Multimedia/

See if that gets you further along.

cochinada:
OK. First part is done and well done:



About the 'Import a library backup' are you talking about the Import option or Restore? I chose the Restore...



and landed here...


"Make sure you select all your files" - how?

cochinada:
I moved on and there is definitely some progress.

I selected 'Albuns' on the left pane as these should represent all my CD's after all and then select on via the menu and applied the renaming as you suggested.


But inside my Categories like 'Classical' or Popular, I have still issues and some work to be done, but how and what?
'Classical' is empty but it still refers to 'D:\Musica\Classica\'... I would expect to refer now to '/media/joaquim/Multimedia/Musica/Classica'



Popular is showing only these strange entries but also it still refers to D:\Musica\Popular\...


There is also this thing I do not understand and it could be or not causing some issues as well.
How come my mounting point looks good as it says 'media/joaquim/Multimedia' but if I open 'Discs' and go to other locations, I see this disc still as 'New Volume'?

cochinada:
I'm beginning to remember stuff I did several years ago that I wished to avoid doing again but I think I'm screwed.
Take this example...

cochinada:
All is coming back to me now. It turns out that fortunately MC is intuitive so I got pretty much all filters working now.
Except this one where I would like not to split the albuns in these 4 groups but can't figure it out where I did that...
