¿Can't "search" files but I can browse to them?

jean.marc 6:53 AM - 16 November, 2010
I CAN browse to and play the files I've purchased on iTunes from within Serato (Itch) but if I search for them by album or artist name using the search box, they WON'T appear in the search results? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

* Correction, this does not happen with ALL itunes purchased songs, only some of them.

Which name do you try to find?
please also check the following:
-All the files are imported correctly in Itch. (analyse them first if you really want to be sure, this is a one time procedure.)
-the selected crate contains the name your searching for
-Use Ctrl+F if you realy want to be sure to search on all files
-strange characters in side the namestring you're searching for -> not all non-common characters react well in itch, i noticed (like "ë" or "ç" etc.)

Hope this helps...

also when did you purchase the songs?

I did analyze them and nothing at first. The songs are from a 2-4 weeks back. I noticed they were m4a then i converted them to mp3 and noticed that I started getting both songs in there. So i deleted the mp3's and re-analyzed the songs and the m4a's ar enow there.

IN OTHER WORDS, now its working, go figure. I will post again if it happens again. Maybe it was something not working in between updates.

sometime just running rescan id tags can fix those random disappearing acts
