Search Doesn't work in WMP12

Search has never works well in all Chinese windows media player series. For
example if you search "party" in the player, the search results will include
"Let's have a party". But if you search "party" in Chinese, it will only give
you the results that starts with "party". So we are missing so so so many
search results.

The same thing happens on the layout of the library. It groups all the items
with the same initials. For example all singer with initial "E" will include
Eminem, Elvis. But in Chinese singers, it groups with the very first
charactar the item has. That makes the grouping very difficult to use because
English has only 24 letters while Chinese has more than 6000 charactars!!! So
singers are grouped by themselves all the time!!!!!! It's realy realy
annoying!!!!

All this happens since WMP 7 or maybe earlier and never improved.

Is there anyone in Microsoft that will see this Discussion board?
Am I posting in the correct place?

If not, please kindly tell me where should I complain about the program.
Thank you in advance.

I recommend that you report this on the Windows 7 Media forum at
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/...omedia/threads
(this forum is being monitored by a few Microsoft employees).
