Several imported Steam games are not found in LaunchboxDB

As title say.

Game are in DB on Launchbox site and in meta file locally but when editing game data they are not found.

Edit: Reimporting game or whole steam library doesn't solve problem.

Edit: While editing game entry, even partial name of game doesn't yield any hits in search field

The Games Database is currently in a state of flux. There was a first phase of a solution that helps with incorrect matching of Steam games. It no longer uses the name to determine the match, and we've essentially eliminated Steam games getting matched to a wrong game entry. The second phase is still a work in progress and will fill in the gaps you are seeing here.

In the meantime, there should be options during an import to grab Steam metadata and media for these games until we finish our backend solution. I unfortunately don't have an ETA to share on when this will finish.
