If I can cross reference,

I've gone through periods of not getting search results. One reason suggested to me was if searching the same search term(s) too frequently, the UP's can start to block it (not respond to it.) This usually repairs after a period of time (especially if you have a dynamic ip address.)
Also try doing single search criteria searches. eg: artist or title or album for music, title or ... for video, etc.
