Description of Issue

I cannot find the tracks with names in Traditional Chinese Characters.
For example: 絃舞


And I do have it in my local library.

I found another strange behavior. If I type “絃舞I” in the search field, then the correct tracks could be found. There should be something wrong with the search string manipulation or the search algorithm in roon.

I am facing this as well. When I search for 孙凰 in roon I get no results, however if I search directly in the Qobuz app I can find them.

Additionally it would be a great feature to be able to group artist names. For example that same artist also appears in the Qobuz library as Huang Sun.

I think that the search algorithm may wrongly limit the characters to at least 3 for local library.

If I search for 茉莉, the tracks named 茉莉花 in my local library are not found. But if I search for 茉莉花, then the tracks are correctly found.


On the other hand, it seams different algorithms are used in local library search and Tidal search. Even I search for 茉莉, tracks named 茉莉花 in Tidal are found.
