Where exactly does Search search?

Thanks. I'll give that a look. It's interesting that the stock search will hit Titles and People, but not Tags.

Another vote for Meilisearch from me. It is great. Aside from title, it searches by overview (i.e. the keyword appearing on the short plot summary you see when you click on the movie), by production year, by studio, by genre, by tags. And it doesn't need exact matches, it implements a kind of fuzzy search, so typos and spelling mistakes are still providing results.

And the best part? It's actually quite a bit faster than the stock search.

The only downside? It needs some resources for running its database and index. My Meilisearch container, with the (optional) WebUI installed and running, sits at 1.5GB RAM servicing a 360MB Jellyfin index.

But if you have the RAM to spare, it's a no-brainer.
