-E FILE, --epgfile=FILE write the EPG data into the given FILE (default is
'epg.data' in the video directory)
'-E-' disables this

Starting vdr with
# vdr -u vdr --cachedir=/var/cache/vdr --video=/var/vdr/video
Does create an epg.data file in the "cachedir" and not in the "video" dir as suggested by the help text.
Originally there was only the "video" directory, but at some point
people demanded that VDR be able to spread its files all over the system,
and so a "cachedir" was introduced, which is where the EPG file is now put
(if a cachedir is specified).
Also what is the meaning of setting --epgfile=-E-
It'e either -E- or --epgfile=-
Does it disable creation of the epg data file completely?
Yes.
