livetv Filters

[imposterdroids]

Greetings,

Filters for livetv used to work, as I could select a movie genre from the available filters, and limit the view to movies of that genre.  Now, when I click on filter there are no genres to select from.  

Curious if anyone else has experienced this issue and knows of a fix. 

from the livetv > Programs > Movies section


from the livetv > Programs > Sports section

After not getting any response, I decided to do a little digging on my own.

Doing an Inspect from Chrome to find the filters call, I found the Items/Filters2 API call, but suprisingly (to me anyway), it returns ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.



So I tried the same call via Postman just to verify it returned nothing:


After more digging, I found out that modifying the IncludeItemTypes parameter was the culprit.  If you pass it 'Program', it ALWAYS returns nothing, but if you pass it another ItemType like TvProgram, the appropriate fields/values are returned:


Is this just a bug or am I misunderstanding how ItemTypes work?  I've dug through the database and there are no Items with a 'Program' ItemType.  

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
