I'm running MP 1.1.3 with XMLTV guide data, and the XMLTV GUI 3.14.0. I've noticed that my TV Guide data is 1 hour out of sync - e.g. programmes which start at 21:00 are showing as starting at 22:00 in MP. I have tried configuring 2 options to try to change this behaviour, but neither makes any difference at all:
- Setting the timezone to -01:00 in the XMLTV GUI Settings page
- Setting the "Apply time compensation when loading XMLTVGUide.XML" parameter to 1 hour

Is anyone familiar with this issue, and can recommend a solution/workaround?

    Hi there,

    You havent said what OS.

    But look for something like "Adjust for Daylight saving time"

    Try turning this off and then manually adjusting your time to make it correct (if needed)

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate. I found and disabled the "Adjust for Daylight Saving Time" setting then re-grabbed the XMLTV data using the XMLTV GUI and re-imported it in the TV Server Config app. The TV guide is still 1 hr ahead. I tried importing the guide data twice, once with "Apply time compensation" and once without. Exactly the same result either way.

    I use the xmltvgui radiotimes, and all is correct with no compensation.

    Did you try deleting all guide data, then stop tvservice then reboot, now import with default settings your new xml , you should not need ANY time compensation anywhere and windows time should be at default.

    The issue is always old info left in database, until reboot this is not completely removed from mysql.

    I'm pulling the data from Radio Times UK.
    OK so I just followed the instructions as you suggested:
    - Deleted tvguide.xml
    - Stopped the Mediaportal TV service
    - Rebooted
    - Re-grabbed guide data from Radio Times UK using the XMLTV GUI, and the timezone set to "GMT/BST"
    - Imported the XMLTV data with time compensaton disabled
    Same result - programme guide data in MP is 1 hour out.
    The Windows clock has BST adjustment disabled.
    How can I diagnose this further?
