Hi,
I'm afraid this mail will be off-topic in this list. But, since i didn't get any help from the mythtv-user mailing list, i thought that developers might be better informed that standard users...
My problem is that i don't get the correct time offset in my program guide using myth 0.17 on a mandrake 10.1.
I'm using data-direct with a GMT-5 tv lineup since my cable provider in GMT-3 isn't listed in data-direct. My mandrake/backend box is configured with a GMT-3 time-zone so mythfilldatabase *should* correct the gmt times given by data-direct to my GMT-3 time-zone but they appear with a 5h offset, as if i was in a GMT time-zone !!
I verified with 'hwclock' and 'date', they correctly specify my GMT-3 time-zone so it's not a linux configuration problem. I also tried the manual xmltv time offset control from mythtv setup but it's not working either (no effect at all).
The only solution i found was this dangerous sql query:
update IGNORE program set starttime = DATE_ADD(starttime, INTERVAL -3 HOUR) , endtime = DATE_ADD(endtime, INTERVAL -3 HOUR);
(i used a 3 hour subtraction in order to get the GMT tv programs correctly displayed to my GMT-3 time-zone)
The program guide is now correct BUT now the program recording option is not working correctly (strange behaviors, like i don't see upcoming recordings, date errors,...).
So how should i correct my time shifting without f***ing the database ?
Thanks
