There are 8 built-in commands:</p> +<pre> + - Repeats: Searches for repeats</pre> +<pre> + - Record</pre> +<pre> + - Switch</pre> +<pre> + - Create search + Switches to search menu and adds a new search with the name of the current + item (to avoid editing the name manually)</pre> +<pre> + - Search in recordings: + Search the recordings for a broadcast with the same name</pre> +<pre> + - Mark as 'already recorded': + This puts the selected event in the file epgsearchdone.data and instructs + epgsearch to avoid recording this event if an according search timer is set + to "avoid repeats". An already created timer will be automatically removed + with the next search timer update.</pre> +<pre> + - Add/Remove to/from switch list?: + Controls the switch list. If there is an event in the switch list, epgsearch + will announce it and switch to the event before it starts.

A search + timer can be setup to ignore events from arbitrary blacklists.</pre> +<p>You can add your own commands to this menu by editing the file +epgsearchcmds.conf in epgsearchs config directory. There's a sample +conf file with some sample commands (see directory 'scripts', taken +from vdr-wiki.de, thanks to the authors).</p> +<p>The format of the file is the same as VDR's commands.conf or +reccmds.conf.

Search timers</a></h1> +<p>This is quite the same as VDRAdmin's auto-timers, but needs no external +software. When you create a search, you can give it an option to use +it as search timer. Now the plugin scans EPG entries in certain update +intervals (->setup) in the background and creates timers if there +are matching entries. If you don't like to get a new timer, but only +want to be informed about the event set 'Announce only (no timer)' to +yes. +Since these search timers are quite useful for serials, you can set +the option 'serial recording' in a search, which creates timers +whose recordings are stored in a folder with the serials name and +whose entries are named with the episode name. If there is no episode +name, the plugin names the recording with a date/time string.</p> +<p>To use search timers, you also have to activate them in the plugins setup. +Also edit the SVDRP port, if you are not using the default 2001.</p> +<p>If you want to trigger a background scan manually simply</p> +<p>touch /etc/vdr/plugins/epgsearch/.epgsearchupdate</p> +<p>This can also be part of your shutdown script. (Add here a sleep +afterwards to give the plugin the time to finish the scan.)</p> +<p>For more info about searchtimers please refer to <code>epgsearch(4)</code>, +'Description of the search process' and 'How do Search Timers work?'</p> +<p> +</p> +<h2><a name="2_1__avoid_repeats___internals">2.1 'Avoid repeats' - internals</a></h2> +<p>This section explains the feature 'Avoid repeats' for a search timer. +Sometimes one cannot avoid double recordings of an event only by +setting the corresponding search criterions.</p> +<p>Therefore the feature 'avoid repeats' tries to check before creating a +timer, if the same event was already recorded in the past or if there +is a timer that records the same event. If so, there will be no new +timer for the event.</p> +<p> +</p> +<h2><a name="2_2_how_do_we_compare_two_events">2.2 How do we compare two events?</a></h2> +<p>To check if two events are the same there are many possible settings +for a search timer. You can choose the title, subtitle, description or +extended EPG categories within the description of an event to be +compared with the elements of another event.</p> +<p>This comparison is always done case-sensitive and for the whole +term. But the description of an event makes an exception of this. +First all text within the description will be truncated that looks +like an extended category entry, e.g. 'Rating: tip'. An extended +category entry is a line of text beginning with max. 40 signs, +followed by ':' and ending with max. 60 further signs. +The reason for this cutting is that some categories like the rating of +an event are not part of the description of the repeat of the same +event.</p> +<p>The remaining text will now be compared by length. If the difference +is bigger then 90%, then we rate the description of the two events as +different. If not, we apply the Levinsthein-Distance-Algorithm (LD), +which makes a fuzzy text comparison. We accept the description of the +events as equal, if LD returns a match of more then 90%. +Since LD is quite runtime intensive (O(mn)), you should not choose +'compare description' as the only comparison criterion, but combine +it always with other criterions.</p> +<p> +</p> +<h2><a name="2_3_how_and_when_do_we_compare">2.3 How and when do we compare?</a></h2> +<p>As already mentioned each search timer update checks search timers +with this feature for recordings in the past or an already existing +timer for the same event.</p> +<p>To remember past recordings epgsearch stores their info in the file +epgsearchdone.data. You can have a look at the contents of this file +calling 'show recordings done' in the 'actions' of the searches menu. +This file only stores info about recordings that are complete, +i.e. that started and stopped just in time. So a broken recording will +not be stored in this file and epgsearch will automatically try to +record the next repeat, if there is any.</p> +<p><strong>How to use it?</strong></p> +<p>As you see, the whole feature depends on the quality of the EPG. +After creating such a search timer, you should first check if it does +what is intended. Therefore the menu of search results has an +additional mode for the key 'blue' named 'Timer preview'. Here you can +see, what timers the next update would create. Existing timers are +labeled with 'T', future timers with 'P'.</p> +<p>Hint: If the programming results in a conflict simply disable the +conflicting timer in the timers menu. The next search timer update, +will try to program a different timer for the same event, if it exists.</p> +<p><strong>When it works not correctly :-)</strong></p> +<p>To get a better control of the programming or not-programming of the +timers when using this feature a log file was introduced. When starting +epgsearch with the command line option '-v n' where n is the log level +than you get additional info in the file epgsearch.log. Available log +levels are 0 (no logging) to 3 (extended logging). See also the manual +for the command line options.</p> +<p> +</p> +<hr /> +<h1><a name="3__usage_from_other_plugins_or_scripts">3.
