Is 1337x Broken with dots or am I using it wrong? Trying to find the movie C.H.U.D. from 1984 but search returns nothing or only wrong results. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I'm looking for C.H.U.D (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.H.U.D.). I tried the following searches when searching 1337x.to:

  1. "C.H.U.D." -- The result was: "Please make sure atleast one word in your query is more then 3 characters. Your search is too short." And I saw it had changed my search string to "C H U D"

  2. "CHUD" -- this returned a bunch of porn, and eventually "C.H.U.D.II.Bud.the.Chud.1989.1080p.BluRay.H264.AAC" showed up in the list. But not the first C.H.U.D movie. And when I searched for "C.H.U.D.II" in the search bar, it once again claimed the search query was too short, and replaced the dots with spaces.

Please help.

Edit: problem solved thanks to you! Just had to out a space between C.H.U.D. and 1984

They had a DDOS attack last week that took the site down for a few days. Since coming back up, I haven't been able to connect to it through radarr or sonarr (via prowlarr) even though you can access the site via a web browser. They've probably either restricted access or part of their site is still broken. In either case, there's not much we can do but wait for a solution.

I think they added a cloudflare captcha. Saw a recommendation for flaresolver but it sounds like that uses a fair amount of memory so I haven't tried it personally
