I have smaller issues to fix now, related with missing Thumbnails.

How do I fix this?


cochinada:
Besides the issue above which I cannot fix, I have one other that is far more serious.
My DAC Topping D10 Balanced is not recognized!

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...

So right now you don't have ownership of your media directories. This can be a little complicated for new users especially as you are trying to fit a square peg (NTFS) into a round hole (Linux).

NTFS doesn't support UNIX permissions (well, it actually does but it will break compatibility with Windows if you want to use the drive on a Windows machine again, so not recommended), so you basically need to change ownership of the entire drive when you mount it.

There's a hard way to do this by editing fstab but I believe that ntfs-3g will inherit the permissions of the mount directory. So unmount your drive and then run `sudo chown joaquim:joaquim /media/joaquim/Multimedia/` and then remount the drive.

I see it listed there with at least three different output choices.

Yep, the preferred audio output for your DAC would be hw:CARD=Balanced.DEV=0 [ALSA]D10 Balanced. .... output, which I added a red arrow by in an edited screenshot.

For some reason in Theater View the albums are not grouped so I did nothing,  :)

I did that but still the owner is root. I also noticed the menu Take Ownership is grayed.

I'm ready for the hard way if that's the only option left...

Yep. I don't wear glasses although I really should...
