Thought the V6 searched across all channels and apps for requested searches?
It does do so, where the app allows it. But there are technical reasons why it doesn't always work. For instance for the iPlayer app, the TiVo search can't see the boxset and archive content.

Potentially as the Channel 5 content is split between Virgin's On Demand service and the app it's not possible to have the search split in that way. Or that it will come once it's confirmed that everyone has the app on their V6 box.
