Hi

 

I have weekly recordings scheduled between 9pm and 2am on certain days. Whenever there is a clock time change in my country, the time is adjusted correctly on my unit BUT it corrupts my recordings such that it records at the wrong time and for like almost a day. The only way to fix it is for me to delete the existing schedules and program them again.

 

Any idea what to do?

Thanks

That is weird, because start- and end times on timer events are stored in UTC timestamps, which are not affected by DST or even timezone changes.

 

Which OpenPLi version are you using? What kind of timer is it exactly, and how did you create it?

Thanks - I am using Openpli 8.2.

I just created a normal timer with OpenPli and this is a recurring timer. The time change seems to corrupt the timer setting effectively

How do you manage to use an unsupported interim version? Only 8.3-release is still supported, and when you have any version 8 installed and you update, you automatically get 8.3.

Like I wrote, I wouldn't know how, as the timer timestamps are in UTC, not in local time, and therefore not affected by DST changes.

 

Can you post your timer.xml ( can be found on the box in /etc/enigma2 )? Just press "More reply options" and attach it to your reply.
