Hi,

Me-tv use the system time so if your computer is "on time", me-tv should be
ok. Did you try to delete the faulty scheduled recording and recreate it ?

Cheers,
Fred

Hi,

my system time ist o.k. And it works fine after an recreate.

But its impossible to recreate every recording during e.g. holidays.

It's a problem to integreate such an time-change-function in the
recording module?

Thanks,

Jörg

The informations on scheduled recording is store in unix time (second past
from january first 1970). Then, the time zone is apply (in here it's
UTC-5h00). The probleme is that, in summer time the systeme is still in
UTC-5h00 (with a flag "summer time"). If I change my time zone to UTC-4h00
everything is ok.

I'll look if I can read the state of the time zone in me-v and make it
behave accordingly.

Cheers,
Frederic
