Is there an existing issue for this?

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Not so much as a bug or a problem, but more something another Radarr user pointed out today. When searching for a movie of, say, a live concert, only twenty results are returned. Same for Overseer>>Radarr. As an example, "Paul McCartney Live".

If you search for this, you'll only ever get 20 results.

I'm guessing this is to do with some kind of API rate limiting, but as was described the this other person, they'd like to be able to see 100 results for "Paul McCartney Live", or whatever exists.

If rates are an issue, then maybe a pagination feature where you can request results 20-40, etc?

Describe the solution you'd like

Whoops, I did that above.

Either a setting option to set the max results returned, or a pagination feature in search results to allow for looking at "all the things" related to a search term, even if they begin to skew a bit from the original term.

"Live In Concert" is another example. Not even a particular artist...just spit out a big list of different concerts, ad nauseum. ;)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Ombii and Overseer as a way of pulling "more". Looking at the API docs to ensure there isn't a pagination feature already (A la Plex's API). Digging through your code to ensure there wasn't something I could easily change myself. Although I didn't look that hard...

Anything else?

Nope. I hope what I'm asking for makes sense.

LOL, of course it does. :P

Tried "Live in concert" in Overseer, and I get a lot more results. Still, Radarr itself seems limited to only 20?

https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/587bea71c3a36846c300ff73 radarr doesnt request additional pages like the others you mentioned do and only gets the first page presumably because the search feature was meant to get exact title matches not for discovery although would be a nifty additional feature.
