[QUOTE="James, post: 102154, member: 12681"] Ok I tested all the AU grabbers this morning and they are all working. I have had a look at the TimeZone problem and sent an email request to the tuhs.org site admin about doing something different with the time zones. The problem is this: The times for the programs are taken from there local times and converted into UTC, using their local TimeZones (TZ). Then to bring them back to a local time you need to add the local TZ again. However, to bring the times into another TZ, you need to first add the Local TZ then the difference to the new TZ, because although the data is in UTC it is based on a TZ. Example: Ten-Qld: UTC -> QLD SC10-GC: UTC -> NSW -> QLD It seems the Southern Cross GC is in the NSW TZ? This would be much better in the local TZs: Ten-Qld: QLD -> QLD (No change) SC10-GC: NSW -> QLD So at the moment WebEPG supports one TimeZone per grabber config file. So if a simple work around would be to split the file into parts per AU TimeZone. However, that will not work for this site :( , but should work for other sites. However, I was thinking of add TZ info for each channel in a config file, but this still doesn't help here :( [/QUOTE]
