Search through Boxee library
I would love to see search. It's a bit cumbersome to go to Hulu and have to scroll 10 pages down to get the show I want to see. Even just a simple string match would be much appreciated
I’m frustrated

we think that search should be in most cases separate for TV Shows, Movies, Music and Clips. it seems like people are in a different mindset when searching for these different media types. and mixing them together will create lots of noise.
or results should be separated based on media type.

As part of the Beta we will provide the ability to search TV Shows, Movies and Applications. The search will cover both local and Internet content.
In the future we will expand the search to include additional sources.

Inappropriate?Fully agree. I'd love a search that searched my local and web sources especially. So if I search for 'terminator' it comes back with a local ripped DVD, the Sarah Conner Chronicles etc.

Inappropriate?Yeah it would be great if this was cross web sites...so I search for "Magic Frogs" and it would bring up the show "Green Frogs" on ABC and show "Laughing Magic Frogs" on the comedy network (sorry that was a bad example)

Inappropriate?Global search is a good idea, but local search is more important. What I mean is implementing a smart search into Movies, TV Shows, Artist, Album, etc... this way if i go into Video > Movies > Search and I type 'a' it will remove all files that don't contain the letter 'a' and then if I type 'l' it will show all files containing 'al' and so on...

This I think would really make boxee SO much more useful. Seems like a relatively large payout for smaller amount of effort on the dev side. Though I'm no Dev.

Inappropriate?mmm agree. But I wonder if search should be restricted by media type rather than episode vs clips. For example, Video is all on search, Music another, etc. IN that case the results should be filterable by things Boxee can know about all of that type of media (Genre, director for movies, etc. )
I’m confident
-
Inappropriate?use of a simple filter field in search for media type an sortable columns in results list would make this very usable
I’m quixotic

Inappropriate?Filter / Search would have been real useful to me when my wife had some TED recommendations she wanted to watch. It was impossible to find them among the ~250 TED items so we had to resort to watching them in the browser.

Inappropriate?search would be huge! definitely need to see this on my apple tv where navigation is cumbersome at times
I’m waiting... patiently...
-
Inappropriate?on which version will you add a search box? something like spotlight in apple would be amazing.

i've got 379 movies, 23 full series, 35GB of music and a lot of pics...i really need a search box...

all right

Inappropriate?something very similar to mobile contacts search.. start typing using the remote keypad and the ui should do a partial match!!!
I’m excited
-
Inappropriate?Great idea. I have a HUGE movie library. I need to be able to search the hundreds of movies.
