    1.18 +This plugin parses the extended EPG data which is send by Premiere on their
    1.19 +option channels. The EPG data is transmitted in a non-standard format on a
    1.20 +non-standard PID.
    1.21 +
    1.22 +This work is based on the premiereepg2vdr commandline tool, which was written
    1.23 +by Axel Katzur software@katzur.de.
    1.24 +premiereepg2vdr can be found at:
    1.25 +<http://www.katzur.de/download/premiereepg2vdr-0.0.3.tar.gz>
    1.26 +
    1.27 +Note: the EPG entries created with this plugin aren't fully compatible with
    1.28 +entries created by premiereepg2vdr. This plugin used a different sheme (IMO more
    1.29 +reliable) to map the EventID. If you're upgrading from premiereepg2vdr you
    1.30 +should delete your epg.data file.
    1.31 +
    1.32 +Beside this, there is nothing big to say:
    1.33 +
    1.34 +- There are no commandline options for this plugin.
    1.35 +- There is no plugin setup menu.
    1.36 +- There is no plugin mainmenu entry.
    1.37 +- Everything should work automatically. Whenever a device is tuned to a Premiere
    1.38 +  channel i.e. by EPG scan or manually, the Premiere EPG scan is triggered.
