Hi,
I'm trying to search for a word in a book's title.
FWIW, I'm searching for the word "Roosevelt".
In Calibre, when I search for "roosevelt", I get 59 books, when I search for "title:roosevelt", I get 13.
In Calibre Companion, when I do either of these searches, I get "Search "Rosevelt" matched 0 books or "Search "title:Rosevelt" matched 0 books".
I know the books are there as I can search by author and select read, and that works - but it seems a bit silly to search in Calibre so see what I need to search for in Calibre Companion.
What am I missing?
Thanks!

BTW, I'm running android 4.4.2, CyanogenMod, (so phone is rooted), and my library is on /storage/sdcard1. I connected as a device and "pushed" everything from Calibre. I've the same problem with both Dalvik and ART (android runtime engines).
