[SOVLVED] EPG search does not search in description

Hello,

When I search the EPG (by bringing up the "Search guide" window), if I tick "Include description" and then click "Search", the search results do not actually search the descriptions. For example, I searched for "NFL" and only one program is found that has "NFL" in the title. However I know there was at least one other program with "NFL" in the description. This program did not come in search results.

I tested this with both the latest Kodi 17 rc3 for Windows and with Kodi 16.1 on my Cubox running LibreELEC 7.0.2. Neither search seems to search the description of the programs.

Maybe this is a known issue or maybe the search of descriptions of programs cannot be performed.

Any thoughts?

If anybody is wondering, I found out this is a bug. Searching in description was never implemented in EPG search. There are items in the search dialog which simply have no implementation logic in the search component. Description is one example, ignore shows already recorded is another.
