Also, you may need the full name including the series number for an exact match ("^Heresy: Series 7$") or perhaps just use the colon separator to constrain the match ("^Genius:")My experience suggests that ^Genius$ does not work, but Genius (without the ^ and $) will work ok, although it could pick up false positives. I think the colon is what "upsets" the match. Does anyone else find the same?
No metacharacters effectively means perform a substring match, which would always work so long as "Genius" is somewhere in the programme name. "^Genius:" works if the programme name begins with "Genius:", which it does in this case. That takes advantage of the fact that a colon is used as a separator in the metadata and thus no need to enter series number. Full name with series number is always best for exact match. And of course you must be searching the programme name, which is the default behaviour. "^Genius:" works fine here. If it doesn't work for you, something else is wrong.
