Did 12.5 break search/browse ECP?
It appears this is no longer functioning. 'search/browse?keyword=the roku channel&type=channel', or anything else for that matter, navigates to the search screen but does not set 'the roku channel' as the search value. Every time the search box is populated with "keyword" and the active cursor in front of the word "keyword"
Changing 'search/browse?keyword=the roku channel&type=channel' to 'search/browse?the roku channel=&type=channel' seems to work...if you don't have that equals sign after 'the roku channel' we get a 404 response.

Re: Did 12.5 break search/browse ECP?
Yes, this is not currently supported. Roku has replaced the search system with a new implementation that's based on the same services that power What to Watch and Live TV. The firmware search has been removed, and that's what was hooked up to the ECP query.

Thanks for the confirmation. It would probably be a good idea to update the ECP documentation to reflect this.

Do you know if there is a plan to re-implement the API search feature in the future?

Re: Did 12.5 break search/browse ECP?
@RokuBen Could you elaborate a bit on how the new search works with Live TV?
In the Search if you enter "South Park", not listed anywhere in the results screen (or in the South Park screen) is The Roku Channel. Within Live TV on The Roku Channel there is Comedy Central Pluto Tv and everyday at ~7 PM CST this station runs South Park until ~ 11 PM CST.

Yes! Please update the documentation. I just spent hour trying to figure out why I couldn't do this and then I found this thread. Absolute BS.

I registered a username in the forums just to say how angry I am and how unacceptable this is.
You want people to use Roku and to build on your platform, then provide a better developer experience.
This is frankly shameful, you have devs out hear wasting hours and have an API in prod that's deprecated/broken without any information.
