You can also use a filter in conjunction with text in the asset name or asset metadata
text fields. If you search using a text field and a filter, only assets that have the search
term and meet the specified criteria are returned.

If more than one filter is defined, an AND operator is implied between them.

In GV Browse, filters are created for the current session only; they cannot be saved
and reused.

About searching metadata fields

You can limit your search to specific metadata fields or keywords, such as the asset
name, the source ID or a keyword, by using the asset metadata text field and specifying
the fields to search.

Assets are returned if they have the word or phrase in any of the specified metadata
fields.

If searching for text that is not in U.S. English, bear in mind that other languages
might determine word boundaries differently. An administrator can configure the
database settings to the appropriate language word breaker. After the configurations
have been changed, the data will need to be re-indexed, so this procedure should
be performed during off-peak usage. For more information, see the Aurora Browse
Installation and Configuration Guide
.

To search foreign metadata (metadata imported from external sources and associated
with a MediaFrame logical asset) or keywords, you need to select these fields in
the Filters drop-down list.
