Hello,
and thanks for a great piece of software! I'm migrating from Media Monkey, and I must say I'm quite impressed with MusicBee.
However (and it's a big "however"), although I managed to do everything I needed to do using MusicBee, including playing via ASIO (awesome!), the search function is severely lacking.
I have a 35,000+ songs in my library, so a good search function is a must. However, a lot of these songs are not tagged properly. So, when I do a simple search with "Search all Fields" checked, these songs are missed! Because the search does not, unfortunately, automatically search directory and filenames! I need to go to the Advanced Search and select Filename->contains->string, which is extremely counter-intuitive and tedious to do repeatedly.
The simple, basic search must include raw filesystem data (path, filename) by default. I propose that this should actually be the basis of the search, and the query of the tag fields should occur on top of it. There may be some options in the Preferences regarding this functionality.
I might be missing something, since I'm a MusicBee beginner, in which case please let me know. If I'm correct, please improve the search function so that it searches paths and filenames by default, the way it is now it's very confusing - I actually panicked that I accidentally deleted stuff, since I could no longer find it.
