Space problem with playtvchannelbyname

[lb544]

Hi,
First, thanks a lot for your great work !
But I have a problem with your last release of your docker image
I use an IFTTT webhook to target the node.js server listening on 8099
When I Say in French "Change la télé sur $", IFTTT request : http://xxxxx:8099/playtvchannelbyname?q={{TextField}}
At this time, all is OK

But, with your last release, when I Say "Change la télé sur M6" at Google Assistant, it request http://xxxxx:8099/playtvchannelbyname?q=sur M 6 (with a space)
The space maybe added by Google (Note that also the word "sur" is added by Google because the TextField from IFTTT may don't have this word)

My Kodi/TVHeadend is setup with "M6" channel (no space)

This is the stack in logs :

But, an other channel with correct name in Kodi work perfectly :

},
best fuzzy match for 'sur france 2' is: {,�,

The problem is that an older release (around november 2019 I think) with playpvrchannelbyname works perfectly with the space added by Google.

Do you have a solution ?
Thanks

the root problem is the undesired inclusion of sur, this throws the fuzzy-matching-algorithm way off :D
I have seen the same issue with the english language with the word of.
I am now stripping sur statically away from the phrase. I hope this helps more that it makes things worse xD
Please report back if this helped.
