# NAME

epgsearch.conf - The searchtimers

# DESCRIPTION

This file contains the searchtimers.

Do not edit it manually, you should use SVDRP.

# SYNTAX

Due to some new features there was a change in the format. The format is now signed with a comment in the first line. The field delimiter is ':':

      1 - unique search timer id
      2 - the search term
      3 - use time? 0/1
      4 - start time in HHMM
      5 - stop time in HHMM
      6 - use channel? 0 = no,  1 = Interval, 2 = Channel group, 3 = FTA only
      7 - if 'use channel' = 1 then channel id[|channel id] in VDR format,
          one entry or min/max entry separated with |, if 'use channel' = 2
          then the channel group name
      8 - match case? 0/1
      9 - search mode:
          0 - the whole term must appear as substring
          1 - all single terms (delimiters are blank,',', ';', '|' or '~')
              must exist as substrings.
          2 - at least one term (delimiters are blank, ',', ';', '|' or '~')
              must exist as substring.
          3 - matches exactly
          4 - regular expression
     10 - use title? 0/1
     11 - use subtitle? 0/1
     12 - use description? 0/1
     13 - use duration? 0/1
     14 - min duration in minutes
     15 - max duration in minutes
     16 - use as search timer? 0/1
     17 - use day of week? 0/1
     18 - day of week (0 = Sunday, 1 = Monday...;
          -1 Sunday, -2 Monday, -4 Tuesday, ...; -7 Sun, Mon, Tue)
     19 - use series recording? 0/1
     20 - directory for recording
     21 - priority of recording
     22 - lifetime of recording
     23 - time margin for start in minutes
     24 - time margin for stop in minutes
     25 - use VPS? 0/1
     26 - action:
          0 = create a timer
          1 = announce only via OSD (no timer)
          2 = switch only (no timer)
     27 - use extended EPG info? 0/1
     28 - extended EPG info values. This entry has the following format
          (delimiter is '|' for each category, '#' separates id and value):
          1 - the id of the extended EPG info category as specified in
              epgsearchcats.conf
          2 - the value of the extended EPG info category
              (a ':' will be translated to "!^colon^!", e.g. in "16:9")
     29 - avoid repeats? 0/1
     30 - allowed repeats
     31 - compare title when testing for a repeat? 0/1
     32 - compare subtitle when testing for a repeat? 0/1
     33 - compare description when testing for a repeat? 0/1
     34 - compare extended EPG info when testing for a repeat?
          This entry is a bit field of the category IDs.
     35 - accepts repeats only within x days
     36 - delete a recording automatically after x days
     37 - but keep this number of recordings anyway
     38 - minutes before switch (if action = 2)
     39 - pause if x recordings already exist
     40 - blacklist usage mode (0 none, 1 selection, 2 all)
     41 - selected blacklist IDs separated with '|'
     42 - fuzzy tolerance value for fuzzy searching
     43 - use this search in favorites menu (0 no, 1 yes)
     44 - id of a menu search template
     45 - auto deletion mode (0 don't delete search timer, 1 delete after given
          count of recordings, 2 delete after given days after first recording)
     46 - count of recordings after which to delete the search timer
     47 - count of days after the first recording after which to delete the search
          timer
     48 - first day where the search timer is active (see parameter 16)
     49 - last day where the search timer is active (see parameter 16)
     50 - ignore missing EPG categories? 0/1
     51 - unmute sound if off when used as switch timer

A ':' in the search term or the directory entry will be translated in a '|'. If a '|' exists in the search term, e.g. when using regular expressions, it will be translated to ``!^pipe^!'' (I know it's ugly ;-))

There's no need to fill all fields, only the first 11 fields must exist.
