[Bug 554972] Re: Program Guide DST offset is GMT and not Local

 

I had a quick look at the xmltv file and it is generated by
epgsnoop/0.11, so this bug may be fixable over there.

Title:
  Program Guide DST offset is GMT and not Local

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mythtv

  It appears that the MythTV Program Guide is using some additional
  logic to align the EPG data around DST changes but is using GMT rather
  than local time as the base.

  This is particularly noticeable in NZ where the schedule was off by an
  hour until 3pm NZST or 3am GMT today.

  I have been able to reproduce this problem under MythBuntu 9.10 with
  MythTV 0.22, and MythBuntu 10.04 Beta and MythTV 0.23.

  To reproduce from a clean install, install Mythbuntu selecting NZ as
  your region and then set the local clock back to 9am on Sunday 4th
  April 2010.

  Create a dummy Video Source with no grabber, and set the XMLTV offset
  to AUTO.

  Create a channel with xmltvid 1036.dvb.guide.

  Then import the attached XMLTV EPG data. All programs prior to 3pm are
  incorrectly loaded into the guide. For example Herbie Fully Loaded
  should start at 1:40pm and has been scheduled for 2:40pm.

  I have confirmed that this issue wasn't present on an older Knoppmyth
  environment running MythTV 0.20 with the same EPG data.
