How do I search by barcode? I tried two methods but both found nothing

Here is a slightly off topic cool search tip I recently found thanks to @outsidecontext*:

In ZXing barcode scanner, settings, custom search URL, paste this:

https://musicbrainz.org/search?type=release&method=advanced&query=barcode%3A%s

I’ve been using this for only a few days and it’s
huge, man, to manage my collection without having to type with my big fingers on my small screen, any more!

* Once you have installed ZXing barcode scanner, you can also send your barcode searches to a Picard, running on a PC in the same local network wi-fi, by using his Picard Barcode Scanner. Read instructions on homepage.
