The remedy is to use the player index (which also works in real time now) and put all the players on the clipboard (which is no longer restricted to any number of games). Still, Chess Assistant offers a better search dialog in that respect and doesn't have you figure out yourself that you ought to use the clipboard (which has become an important tool after they now removed the silly limitations of the past).
