Provided there is at least one file in it, that is a. correctly titled to begin with or b. one that matches the search criteria, whatever that may be...
Should also mention that probably other than staff very few members beyond that will understand how search works, so they will expect it to find 'all results', a normal assumption I would think and when they are presented with a search results page that will likely be as far as they will go, the thinking being at that point all have been found.
In your example, if I say search for "Harry Potter" I will likely be present with may search results choices (I've not tired this but is would seem logical given the number of films) then I must browse them and have knowledge of which is for which film (if they happen to not be clearly labeled) then pick one then after that loads go to it's album to find all for that film, IMHO it's far simpler to just open "H" tab scroll down to HP films pick the one I want and done, but to each his own.
Point is item naming (captions) is flawed as is, it's no ones fault module should not have been designed the way it is, far too subjective and at the whims of up-loaders or in the case of the multi-file one it just flat does it wrong lol.
Now if all the title (caption fields) were forced to match the album (cat name) they are placed in and then have any extra info placed in the description field -- all is solved and search will then work as expected in all cases.
