Hi, Recently got this error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/ethan/git/music-metadata-indexer/src/mmindexer/__init__.py", line 38, in <module> start("/home/ethan/git/music-metadata-indexer/sample", "/home/ethan/git/music-metadata-indexer/test.db") File "/home/ethan/git/music-metadata-indexer/src/mmindexer/__init__.py", line 23, in start scanner.build_database() File "/home/ethan/git/music-metadata-indexer/src/mmindexer/scan.py", line 79, in build_database _import_song(self.db, Path(dirpath).joinpath(f), self.logger) File "/home/ethan/git/music-metadata-indexer/src/mmindexer/scan.py", line 23, in _import_song db.add_song(filepath) File "/home/ethan/git/music-metadata-indexer/src/mmindexer/index.py", line 166, in add_song for match in self.search("albums", album): File "/home/ethan/git/music-metadata-indexer/env/lib/python3.9/site-packages/sqlite_utils/db.py", line 1625, in search cursor = self.db.execute( File "/home/ethan/git/music-metadata-indexer/env/lib/python3.9/site-packages/sqlite_utils/db.py", line 243, in execute return self.conn.execute(sql, parameters) sqlite3.OperationalError: fts5: syntax error near "." So, the error seems to suggest there was a "." character somewhere in the SQL command that was causing the error. I did a little digging and found this in the docs: https://www.sqlite.org/fts5.html#fts5_strings. "." is one of the many prohibited characters.

My solution was to just strip these out of the query using this line query = query.translate({e: None for e in itertools.chain(range(0,26), range(27, 48), range(58,65), range(91,95), [96], range(123,128))})

Perhaps this could be included into the table.search() function?
