AFAIK you cannot create your own custom "groups" using your own criteria.

You can assign them to different "recording groups" and then show the
recording groups in the list, but you would have to assign them to the
groups manually.

These are the custom recording rules.

E.g. if you create a recording rule that searches for "Angelina Jolie"
in the cast, then the "Show Searches" checkbox will cause a "(Angelina
Jolie)" entry to appear at the top of the list containing any programs
*actually recorded* by that rule.

But it only shows the programmes that rule caused the scheduler to
record it.  So if two or more rules match the same programme it would
only appear under the one that actually "won".
