Ah, a "Genre" search, I don't do this much.
I thought you meant a search for a programme name. It does work if you search for Emmerdale, or Coronation, etc., it will find the programmes on ITV.
I have just tried various Genre searches, and you are correct that none seem to come up for ITV.
I wouldn't put the blame for this on the HDR, though.
I would bet my bottom dollar that the fault lies with ITV. Experience shows that the metadata they provide to the EPG on Freesat is cr*p. If they don't provide the genre information, then the HDR cannot return it.
That would be my guess - yet another ITV cock-up


Edit : I've just done a Genre search on Free
view, and ITV programmes are returned. This shows ITV
can provide the metadata, but just don't seem to get it right on Freesat, even though they are a joint founding partner in the venture.
Rgds.
