BBC World Time Zone Problem

Post by remlap »

Hi, I live in GMT time zone, but Radio Times provides data for BBC World News in CET while the rest of its data is GMT.

How can I alter the time zone just for this one channel so DVBViewer is correct for the listings?

Thank you for any help.

Otherwords bring them to GMT.

I am sorry but that reply was a bit to simple for me to understand.

Look at doing what exactly, I am confused.

All I want to do is grab VH-1 Europes XML from Phazer XMLTV service and bring all the start times back an hour.

Thank you.

you will need to write a script to do what you want (unless you download using another program then you could use xmltv_import), if you look at the ontv script (/scripts/dk_ontv/dk_ontv.lua) that downloads an xmltv file from the web then imports it and you could probably adapt it to do what you want

Is there a more simple way if I opened the xml myself edit to tell its CET and software will convert since there is a time zone option.

Nevermind I've just used your software to make the time zone go back an hour :D
