I favor the epgsearch plugin. It allows to set several parameters for
search timers, e.g. to record films with a specific name, in a specific channel,
when they run in a specific time range. This is what I use when I want to
record once-a-week shows, as they sometimes are shifted a bit in starting 
time.

As Martin said, the other very useful tool is vdradmin-am, which, besides
other things, has a web frontend for the epgsearch plugin.

Kind regards,
Stefan

I've been using epgsearch and vdradmind-am for years and I can't
imagine not using them!

Yes, I forgot to mention epgsearch. As more and more stations at least
in Germany have the nasty habit of moving TV shows to other time slots
if the ratings are not satisfactory, epgsearch is a must-have.

It also saves disk space if your favourite TV show is temporary replaced
by e.g. a sports match.

Not to forget the LIVE plugin, which has a very good integration with 
epgsearch too. After all most of the LIVE timer functionality was provied by 
the epgsearch author himself.

Kind regards
Dieter

P.S. I know it a little bit of advertising :) but its open source too

well it wasn't obvious for me, but when I pressed the left button on the
date to before today, it showed a MTWTFSS, and pressing left again changed
to --S (Sunday)

Hope this helps.

I am using vdradmin-am to schedule my recordings; there are checkboxes 
for every day of week.

If you press 0 on a timer date/time then it changes from being a one
off recording to being weekly recurring.

Pressing left/right after that gives you lots of options, e.g.
recording Sun - Sat / Mon - Fri / Sat  Sun etc

It might also be a good idea to take a look at the MANUAL:

  (3) In the Timers menu, when on the Day item, the '0' key toggles between
  a single shot and a repeating timer. If Day indicates a repeating timer,
  the keys '1'...'7' can be used to toggle the individual days ('1' is 
Monday).
