I'm running qt-3.3.4.
This needs to be brought to mythtv-dev for the dev's to comment on.
For now, I'm just changing the "recording schedules" start early / end late options by 60 (-60/ +60) minutes for each program schedule. It's easy to do with the mythweb. I can't (or rather won't) change my timezone as I have other things on this box that I don't really want to risk breaking.

I ran into a page with a changelog for QT 3.3.4. [1] Halfway down the
page it mentions a fix: "QDateTime: Fixed bug in secsTo() during

Okay. I think I know for sure what the exact problem is. We count the number of seconds from Jan 1, 1970 to the GMT time of the program. Since QT fixed their secsTo bug, they're now taking into account the time zone. That means that when the GMT time of a show is after the daylight savings time transition, our number of seconds to the start of the program is off by an hour.
That's why everyone's programs started breaking yesterday. If your time zone is 6 hours away from GMT, then you'll start having shows be off for an hour right around 8:00 (6 hours before 2:00).
I'm not familiar enough with QT to offer a fix. Do they provide any DateTime functions that deal with GMT differently than local time?
