Q: Finder only searching song titles
I'm having a problem with finder in El Capitan 10.11.4. If I go to a music folder (mp3s) on my MBP, and search for "ella", finder will show me all of the files with "ella" in the filename (~500 of them). If I tell finder to search "name: ella" or "filename: ella", it will return only the files with "ella" in the ID3 title field. Even when I specifically tell it to search by filename, it only returns files with "ella" in the song title. Every file with "ella" as the artist is ignored unless "ella" is also in the song title.
If I wipe my spotlight index, I can search by filename and it shows me all the files with "ella" in the filename for a short period of time. When the indexing gets to the music folder, it goes back to only showing songs with "ella" in the title.?
How can I fix this?
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch,Early 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)
