8 Some EPG providers deliver additional EPG information like the type of
9 event, the video and audio format, cast,...
10
11 Using tvm2vdr or epg4vdr you can import this into vdr. To use this
12 information with search timers one has to configure it with the file
13 epgsearchcats.conf in your plugins config directory.
14
15 Sample files for epgsearchcats.conf are delivered with the plugin in
16 the directory 'conf'.
17
18 Simply copy the one that fits for you to your plugins config directory
19 with filename epgsearchcats.conf and then have a look to the search
20 timers edit menu (after a restart of VDR).
21
22 Since setting up a new epgsearchcats.conf is a lot of work, I've added
23 a small tool 'createcats', that makes the biggest part of the job. It
24 should have been compiled with the plugin and exists in the sources
25 directory.
26
27 See createcats(1) for information about how to use it.

29 Internals: epgsearch scans the summary of an event for the category
30 name followed by ': ' for all categories that have a corresponding
31 value set in the search timer. The search is case sensitive regarding
32 the category name as also the value.
33
35 ID|category name(,format)|name in menu|values separated by ','(option)|searchmode(option)
36
37 - 'ID' should be a unique positive integer
38 (changing the id later on will force you to re-edit your search timers!)
39 - 'category name' is the name as delivered by the EPG provider, e.g. 'Genre'
40 you can optionally provide a format specifier for numeric values, e.g.
41 Episode,%02i
42 - 'name in menu' is the name displayed in epgsearch.
43 - 'values' is an optional list of possible values
44 - 'searchmode' specifies the search mode:
45 text comparison:
46 0 - the whole term must appear as substring
47 1 - all single terms (delimiters are ',', ';', '|' or '~')
48 must exist as substrings. This is the default search mode.
49 2 - at least one term (delimiters are ',', ';', '|' or '~')
50 must exist as substring.
51 3 - matches exactly
52 4 - regular expression
53 numerical comparison:
54 10 - less
55 11 - less or equal
56 12 - greater
57 13 - greater or equal
58 14 - equal
59 15 - not equal
