+=head1 NAME
+
+F<epgsearchcats.conf> - Configuration of the additional EPG information
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Some EPG providers deliver additional EPG information like the type of
+event, the video and audio format, cast,...
+
+Using tvm2vdr or epg4vdr you can import this into vdr. To use this
+information with search timers one has to configure it with the file
+epgsearchcats.conf in your plugins config directory.
+
+Sample files for F<epgsearchcats.conf> are delivered with the plugin in
+the directory 'conf'.
+
+Simply copy the one that fits for you to your plugins config directory with
+filename epgsearchcats.conf and then have a look to the search timers
+edit menu (after a restart of VDR).
+
+Since setting up a new F<epgsearchcats.conf> is a lot of work, I've added
+a small tool 'createcats', that makes the biggest part of the job. It
+should have been compiled with the plugin and exists in the sources
+directory.
+
+See C<createcats(1)> for information about how to use it.
+
+B<Internals:> epgsearch scans the summary of an event for the category
+name followed by ': ' for all categories that have a corresponding
+value set in the search timer. The search is case sensitive regarding
+the category name as also the value.
+
+=head1 SYNTAX
+
+ ID|category name|name in menu|values separated by ','(option)|searchmode(option)
+
+ - 'ID' should be a unique positive integer
+ (changing the id later on will force you to re-edit your search timers!)
+ - 'category name' is the name as delivered by the EPG provider, e.g. 'Genre'
+ - 'name in menu' is the name displayed in epgsearch.
+ - 'values' is an optional list of possible values
+ - 'searchmode' specifies the search mode:
+ text comparison:
+ 0 - the whole term must appear as substring
+ 1 - all single terms (delimiters are ',', ';', '|' or '~')
+ must exist as substrings. This is the default search mode.
+ 2 - at least one term (delimiters are ',', ';', '|' or '~')
+ must exist as substring.
+ 3 - matches exactly
+ 4 - regular expression
+ numerical comparison:
+ 10 - less
+ 11 - less or equal
+ 12 - greater
+ 13 - greater or equal
+ 14 - equal
+ 15 - not equal
+
