Hi,

Did you try "Refresh Cache"?
I had 0 results, until I did the refresh, then I got 3 results.

On the WebPVR page select the Search Tab (should be the default) at Top of Page, from 
"Search", "Recordings", "PVR List", "Run PVR", "Update Software", "Help" tabs.
Just above and below list of programs you should have
"Search", "Record" "Play", "Queue" "Play Remote", "Add Search to PVR", "Refresh Cache", 
click on the "Refresh Cache" button, you should see a page Info: Getting tv index feeds, 
followed by a list of added programmes, close and now redo your search.

Using command line these 3 are returned, the same as from WebPVR
