Hi. I do not have any James Brown albums in my own library, but I do have a Qobuz subscription. I would expect those from Qobuz to be shown on the first page of the search, but they are not, they are only shown when I click the “View All” option next to Albums, and then they are shown after the six tenuous matches that Roon unhelpfully selects from my library. And talking of those six, while I can see how James Taylor, Brown Rice and James McMillan might be connected thinly to James Brown, I can’t see how Elephunk, Jeff Beck or The Very Best of the Eagles are. It simply looks like the search doesn’t work.
And why also there are four “James Brown” in the Artists section is hard to understand.
I’ve just discovered that if I filter the albums returned for the James Brown search by James Brown I finally get James Brown albums! If at first you don’t succeed …
This is really not an intuitive, helpful or sensible way of searching, surely. How do I explain to other less tolerant members of my house that if they want to find James Brown albums they first have to search for James Brown, they won’t get shown any, but then if they click on View All they will get some mixed with other things but then if they filter that lot by James Brown they will get what they wanted in the first place?
