Need to time shift EPG

[Painkiller8818 86]

Hi,

 

I have a m3u List and an EPG list, but the EPG if 1h off and i need to adjust this.

I think this is because the EPG is UTC and i need to adjust it to my time zone but i can't find an option to do this.

I also had to do this in Kodi years ago but i can't find this setting in Emby.

How can i do this?

Thanks

Hi, i know i saw this in the support docu but i don't have an m3u i only have an online link to a php file with username and password.

I need to time shift it in emby directly.

 

thanks

It's possible for the future. Thanks.

Just for educational purposes, can you explain this a bit @Painkiller8818?  (I don't know how to use m3u files in Emby.)  Does the PHP file generate the m3u's?  Then the m3u's exist in the cloud and you link to them?  Do you access the PHP file from inside Emby or from some other app?

Yes from my provider i have a link to a php file with a code for my user, this complete link i just copy into the URL field for the m3u file and it works in emby.

I don't have the m3u local on the pc so they can always update it online when they add new channels etc.

There is a workaround for this to work, you need to set a second additional clock with your time zone etc and it will fix your issues.

Hi, an additional clock where?

[Marijuana 11]

On windows or any pc that hosts emby server, setting a 2nd clock on windows to your time zone and time fixes the emby time sync then embys guide is correct and matches perfectly.

First check and make your your setting for adjust daylight saving time is correct.  Before it that is set wrong windows won't update that setting and while you time is shown correct a lot of windows processing and APIs return things an hour off.

That's what this sounds like to me.

You would want the setting to adjust for daylight savings time on.

Time is correct, it is all syncing using internet time

Sounds like something is off or configured wrong (could just be the m3u file).
What I would suggest is opening a free account at https://m3u4u.com.

You don't need to use anything there except the time offset functionality.  When you download the m3u file from them it will be adjusted.  So you set it up so they pull the file daily and you pull it from them 30 to 60 minutes later.  BTW, if you have a lot of channels you would like to remove to get a much cleaner list take advantage of their service to do this as they make it very easy to adjust your files.
