[QUOTE="RonD, post: 972967, member: 117536"] Since the US is switching to daylight savings time this Sat/Sun night/morning (Mar 9/10) I checked how the switch works with the updated script. Looks like the grabber works correctly but at least in the pacific timezone there is a problem with the imdb webpage listings. Starting on Sat at 6pm, the listings are off by 1 hour, it gets cleaned up on Sun by 3am or so. For my local CBS station (KPIX) I see the following in the webpage listings 5:30 PMKPIX 5 News at 5:30pm: 7:00 PMCBS Evening News 7:30 PMKPIX 5 News at 6:30pm: The 5:30 pm local KPIX news starts at the correct time, but for unknown reasons the webpage listings skips 6pm, shows the CBS Evening News starts at 7pm (should be 6pm), then shows the 6:30 KPIX news starts at 7:30 pm. This off by 1 hour continues until Sun morning. This off by 1 hour also shows up in the MePo EPG and happens for all the channels I checked. The listings are correct at 3am or so. The MePo listings also shows a time glitch for the transition. In the US the "spring forward" happens at 1:59:59 am and time should skip forward to 3:00:00 am. The MePo EPG should not show 2:00-2:59. If you use WebEPG with the imdb grabber and plan record shows on Sat evening/morning (Mar 9/10) you may have some problems. [/QUOTE]
