Default "Describing" Audio File

Hi,
I've included in a DJ Mix of mine, multiple artist names that are featured in the mix so that others will find the mix when they search for the artist.

The Files name is long and contains the Artist names.
I've used on the Library page the "Describe function" to again
include all of the artists names in the "Artist" description.

All seems good.

But when I search via limewire (from different computer
from different location) I don't "find" my file at all.

I search a few different names.

I search by title
by artist
by anytype

and nothing shows up

any ideas on how to best describe sound files for
gaining the most "search" finds that it should?

thanks

The question is, does your search find your computer from elsewhere. If you're firewalled then your shared files might not show up in any searches.

Do this test: Bug Report instructions & sample image Is the result True/False? If False, then something is partially blocking LW. Probably a firewall.

Did you configure your firewall so it allows LW full access (advisable not to have 2 active firewalls b/c they can interfere with each other); Firewall configuration instructions (click on link)

Try to direct connect to your computer; see How to use Direct Connect
