Recording, search by title/keyword

HR20-700
Has anyone else seen this:
Today I tried to search by title for "FUTURE CAR" and returned nothing.
Then tried search by keyword and it found "I LOVE LUCY"

So I tried the same search on my old Phillips DVR which found multiple events of "FUTURE CAR"
I have seen this a few times while searching for other programs to record.
Is this considered a problem with the hr20 or is it me ?
The guide is fully updated.

was "future" and "car" mentioned in the Lucy show description?

I was able to find episodes of "Futurecar", but not "Future Car" in the title search.

Interestingly, I also had "I Love Lucy" return as a title when using "Future Car" in the keyword search. In the information on the show it states,

"The Ricardos clash over Little Ricky's future career."

Unfortunately, the search method of the HR20 sucks out loud. It is a disgrace. I have given up on it. Even though autorecord doesn't work, a keyword search will not return items that I have seen in the guide first hand. I have a saved search for Islanders - Sports - Hockey, and I will get no hits above channel 700, even though I can page up in the guide and find them.

I have a workaround. I check the ToDo list in my trusty TiVo, find the channel and time of each game for the next two weeks, and set manual channel recordings like a VCR in the HR20. It sucks, but it works (at least most of the time. Sometimes the HR20 just cancels my recording, and then I have to watch it on the TiVo as well. That wouldn't be a problem, but with the HR20 hooked up via HDMI, it looks so much better than the TiVo on the NTSC In, which I only did because I thought the TiVo backup would be a temporary measure. Here I am 5 months later...)

I just wanted to test your trouble. I put in keyword search "Islanders". I got a channel 767 entry at 7:30pm today and then lots of entries in the 620's plus a Lilo and Stitch episode. I guess I don't understand the 7:30pm today at 10:30pm today. I was unaware of previous shows being searchable. Unless this game is still in progress?

I am still getting used to having to use the first word "The" in my title searches. Tivo didn't use "The" as the first word in their titles.

Shame not enough of us recognise this as a problem, least, not enough to count for D* to enter it on the fix list.
