Searching for shows with numeric titles using remote

[AndyS]

I want to set up a recording for the NBC show "10.5" tonight. I know I can do it via the TV guide but I wanted to do it via "Search for programs to Record". I selected "Search by Title" but the show doesn't appear in the list on the right of the screen. If I start typing "10.5" on the keyboard the show is found, but there's no numbers on the virtual keyboard on the screen to enable me to do this with a remote control.

I'm guessing that the show not appearing is a bug, and we need a feature request to either add numeric keys to the virtual keyboard, or provide some facility to find shows with this naming convention.

Does anyone else have an opinion?

Did you try simply pressing the number buttons on the remote... ?

Haha - never even thought of it!!!

K - so we don't need a feature request. Is the fact that the title doesn't appear in the list a bug though?

I'm not certain what you mean, since one sentence says the show doesn't appear, but the next one says the show is found. When I tried it, the show "10.5" was found & listed regardless of whether I use the keyboard or the remote to start entering "10".

Do you mean it isn't listed in the initial list shown before any search terms are entered? I'm not sure what that list includes, but it isn't a complete list of every single show available.

Right - that's what I mean. The initial list doesn't seem to be complete, but as soon as I start entering search terms I see the show that I'm trying to find.
