Summary0009779: Improve presentation of search results (0 tracks are returned in some cases)
DescriptionCurrently Search works, but is kind of limited. Possible improvements:

1. Each category should start with a header, i.e. Artists, Album, Tracks.
2. More entities should be searched, like Composers, Genres, ...
3. Presentation should be matched to the rest of UI - i.e. track should show track length, artists # of albums, etc.
4. The currently used icons don't look too great, it would probably be better to use Artwork as we do in the rest of UI. In order to make clear what type of entry it is, there could probably an icon by overlaid.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build367

Items 1,3,4 have been fixed (and item 2 is tracked at 0011926. However, search results are incomplete.

e.g.
In a library that has:
Artists:
X
X and Y

Albums:
X: Album1, containing tracks: 11, 12, 13
X and Y: Album2 containing tracks: 21, 22, 23

If the user searches for: X and presses ENTER, the Tracks tab shows 0 matching tracks as it only contains Tracks whose title matches 'X' (rather than the contents of all of the Artists + Albums + Tracks that contain 'X').

However, when performing such a search, users generally expect to see all tracks matching X.

The fix works as expected in build 365, however, I neglected to mention another aspect of the bug:

In a library that has:
Artists:
X and Z
X and Y

Albums:
X and Z: Album1, containing tracks: 11, 12, 13
X and Y: Album2 containing tracks: 21, 22, 23

If the user searches for: X and presses ENTER, the Tracks tab now correctly shows all the matching tracks, however, the Albums tab shows 0 matching Albums, since it only contains Albums whose title matches 'X' (but it should include all Albums that contain 'X' as well as all albums by Album Artists that contain 'X').

I have also included tracks from albums with album artist 'X' to Tracks tab.
Fixed in build 1.1.0.367.
