Search and DVR Pass doesn't look at the subtitle

[pdxnick]

I'm trying to setup a DVR pass for a few sports teams, but it isn't working.

My guide shows this information for sports, NBA, MLB, College, etc.

Live: MLB Baseball
Team A at Team B

When I search for Team A though nothing shows up, and of course the DVR pass system doesn't work. So does Channels not look at the sub-title information or team information? If I search MLB Baseball it will work and show all of the upcoming games, but then if I select "New Series Pass" and look at the Matches it says "No matching upcoming airings."

Correct.

You can use a pass but it has to be the advanced version where you can select in more details what to look for.

There is another discussion about the same topic and you will find some ideas in there:

Search doesn't include program descriptions

When i use search, to search the guide, it is only reading the program titles? Not the descriptions of the program. Example. I search for "cheetah" that is the animal. Search shows only a program(s) with the word Cheetah in it: [search] But, manually browsing one of many channels, i find programs that have "cheetah" in the program description, but the title of the show does not have the word in it, thus, search does not find it. This is only but one of many examples of programs/episodes …

Oh, great thank you. I'll look at that other thread. The advanced setup seems perfect, but just need to figure out how to get things to match.

Searching for a team and setting up a team pass are both features that exist already, but require gracenote guide data to work.

The series pass should also work in a default hdhomerun or tve setup. I assume you're using some type of xmltv which is causing these issues.
