NAME

6       epgsearchcats.conf - Configuration of the additional EPG information
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Some EPG providers deliver additional EPG information like the type of
10       event, the video and audio format, cast,...
11
12       Using tvm2vdr or epg4vdr you can import this into vdr.  To use this
13       information with search timers one has to configure it with the file
14       epgsearchcats.conf in your plugins config directory.
15
16       Sample files for epgsearchcats.conf are delivered with the plugin in
17       the directory 'conf'.
18
19       Simply copy the one that fits for you to your plugins config directory
20       with filename epgsearchcats.conf and then have a look to the search
21       timers edit menu (after a restart of VDR).
22
23       Since setting up a new epgsearchcats.conf is a lot of work, I've added
24       a small tool 'createcats', that makes the biggest part of the job. It
25       should have been compiled with the plugin and exists in the sources
26       directory.
27
28       See createcats(1) for information about how to use it.
29
30       Internals: epgsearch scans the summary of an event for the category
31       name followed by ': ' for all categories that have a corresponding
32       value set in the search timer. The search is case sensitive regarding
33       the category name as also the value.
34

SYNTAX

36        ID|category name|name in menu|values separated by ','(option)|searchmode(option)
37
38        - 'ID' should be a unique positive integer
39          (changing the id later on will force you to re-edit your search timers!)
40        - 'category name' is the name as delivered by the EPG provider, e.g. 'Genre'
41        - 'name in menu' is the name displayed in epgsearch.
42        - 'values' is an optional list of possible values
43        - 'searchmode' specifies the search mode:
44          text comparison:
45           0  - the whole term must appear as substring
46           1  - all single terms (delimiters are ',', ';', '|' or '~')
47                must exist as substrings. This is the default search mode.
48           2  - at least one term (delimiters are ',', ';', '|' or '~')
49                must exist as substring.
50           3  - matches exactly
51           4  - regular expression
52          numerical comparison:
53           10 - less
54           11 - less or equal
55           12 - greater
56           13 - greater or equal
57           14 - equal
58           15 - not equal
