Sujet: "Search for similar songs"
Does not work:

If song has Title and Interprtet: "Hold on" - "AGY, Chris"
Similar results like: "Hold on" - "AGY & Chris"

are not found!!!

Or vice versa - in one direction it works, in the other not!

search is a comparison for full word tokens

try this for example
Hold AGY on Chris
 

In VirtualDJ search, if you don't use quotes ( " ) then it searches on all the fields* for anything that matches partially the sum of the given strings.

In other words if you type a b c then VirtualDJ searches for *a* AND *b* AND *c* on all fields*

However, if you use quotes then it searches the exact string in quotes.
So, if you type "a b" c it searches for *a b* AND *c*
In other words, in this case the space between a and b is not used to "break" the search string in 3 parts.

*PS: VirtualDJ searches at all the database fields that you have selected to search for (with the search menu next to the search field)
Also it treats all the searchable fields as one:
On the example above *a* AND *b* AND *c* a, b and c don't have to be part of the same database field for the search to return the track. If let's say a is part of the Album, b is part of the track's name and c is part of the comment, then this track will be shown in the results.
