    As an experiment I just did a search for Flog It using the looking glass on the remote.

    I put in "fl" and was offered Flog It as an option. Selecting that brought up a list of all the episodes (BBC2 and BBC2 HD) for the whole week ahead under the heading "Broadcast". Selecting one resulted in the same display as if I had selected it from the EPG.

    Obviously, as Graham mentions, if it is more than a week ahead it will not find it because it is not yet in the EPG.

    I don't expect it to find programes beyond the 7 day epg, the programme I was trying to set as I said was tomorrow, well within the 7 day epg.

    It would not even find one tomorrow when I tried it.

    Garden Rescue is on BBC1-HD this afternoon and every day till Friday

    gard returns nothing as does fl

    Software version 1.03.52

    Very odd Graham. I just put in "g" and Garden Rescue was third on the list of options. Same software version.

    Think I may found the issue. Backwards epg has no programme information. On Demand is not available at the moment. Network connection status is OK.

    Guessing it's a Freeview server issue.

    I have backward EPG. You could try clearing cookies to see if that brings both backward EPG and EPG search up.

    Guessing the Op and I have the same external issues. No On Demand content to search so search locks up checking IP delivered content.

    Timpars what happens if you press the blue on demand Button and also if you select 101 at current time and go left on the remote ?

    I have nothing with "On Demand" either, but the search still works (and gives On Demand results as well as Broadcast).

    Clearing cookies fixed backwards epg. Never needed to do this before

    fl still returns nothing. Box recording in 47 mins. I will shut it down and power cycle.

    Needed power cycle to find any results.
