Yes, these new controls are changing the contents of the merkliste,
so epg2timers no longer recognizes the required strings.
I guess I'll have to put that information into the README file.
Maybe I'll try to change epg2timers, so it also recognizes the
alternate formats (as long as there is sufficient information
in them).

I run update_timers ~ every 4 hours, so I guess 4 hours would have
been enough. I made it 42 times higher just to be safe.
I did not make it more, because I find the timers list easier to
handle when it only shows the next week.
Of course, that's a matter of taste, so I made it configurable.
As long as you do not make it smaller than your minimum update_timers
interval and not larger than 28 days (because timer entries do not
contain the month and the year), you should be safe.

Carsten.
