Default video search types

When I select video as a search type, there is a type list that starts with adult, and goes through to video clip. If what I am looking for as an episode of a TV show, what should I select for type?

thanks,
Fay

Just type in the search field the title of whatever it is you are looking for. The trick (or at least my trick) is to be very selective of what you select for downloading. Use certain criteria such as filetype (i.e. .avi, .mpg, .omg, .mkv) and file size (depends on how long and in what quality you expect the video to be. For example, you will never see a full size, DVD quality movie with a file size of 150Megs. It will be more like 2Gigs or something).
As you familiarise yourself with simple searching over Gnutella, you will be able to move on to the more complicated features of LW.
For that, you may look around the forums for further clues.
