Use exact phrase does not work. If I set-up an automatic search for "CSI" and select "Use exact phrase" and search only the title field, then "CSI Miami" appears in the results.
Also when using several words like a program called "FC Z" then it searches for both words and gives TONS of results.

No, seriously, I can easily undertsand that this feature is misunderstood. The original thought about "Use exact phrase" was not to split the search term on spaces, not to match the whole title. So "CSI" will give you all the CSI's, no matter what you do. I'll rethink this in the next release.

Another thing, the search syntax is far more complex than simple words. But it needs polishing. I'll write a post about it at the next TVA release. But for now, when getting too many hits for FC Z, try this search in combination with "Use exact phrase" or simply include " in the term: "FC Z".
