Issue with GamesDB search

[Rinusch]

Hi all,

I noticed an issue while searching for metadata in the GamesDB. It turns out not all matching results are returned when I use a longer (but matching) search term, opposed to a shorter one.

For instance, when I search for titles matching 'lemmings' for platform 'Commodore Amiga', I only get 1 result. When I search for titles matching 'lemming' (without the 's') for the same platform however, I get a whole list of results.
I expect this to be intended behaviour, as 'lemmings' exactly/fully matches a specific title. This can be annoying however, as you need to explicitly check whether the result returned is 'the exact match' or the only matching result.
If it's the exact match and you're looking for another game or version of it, you need to repeat the search with a shorter search term.
For me, it would make more sense and be more efficient if the results are always all games (for that platform) matching the search term.

On a more general note: where is the right place to report issues (potential bugs if you like) for 'current' versions of Launchbox, i.e. the most recent version not being the beta version in current development (which has a dedicated sub-forum for this)?

Regards!
