leetxjd 1 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 First - a shout-out and thanks to the developers of this plugin puenktchen and ChubbyArse (and anyone else I may have mistakenly omitted). I am having an issue where the EPG is displaying shows/series about 4 hours off from their schedule for my timezone (U.S. Central Time). I have searched generally for a solution, but I have not found it. Am I missing a setting somewhere for timezones? The Mediaportal guide displays correctly in Mediaportal. When I access the guide on emby (and the plugin) the times are off. -leetxjd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1251 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I'm out of town until Saturday, so can't look at this right now. I will post some instructions when i'm back at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1251 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I just had a quick look at the code of the plugin. It takes the times as they come from MPExtended (normally local time). So the problem must be somewhere else. As a quick test put this into a browser on your MPExtended/TVServer machine: http://127.0.0.1:4322/MPExtended/TVAccessService/json/GetChannelsDetailed Are the program times correct there?

leetxjd 1 Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 Yes, the times appear correct in the channels detail. In addition, the times are correct in the WebMediaPortal guide (in browser and android app) and the Mediaportal guide on the machine hosting Mediaportal. The Emby guide and Mediaportal guide is 5 hours off (meaning Emby is displaying shows that are 5 hours later). That is the exact difference between Central Time (where I am) and GMT. Also, it may not be your plug in at all. I have continuing to undertake searches and there is some mention (in older posts) that this is a problem in Emby itself, but I haven't found a fix for it. I certainly don't know/cant find a setting for GMT. Any ideas? -LeeTXJD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pünktchen 1251 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 make sure all your DateTimes are in UTC and have the Kind property set to UTCFrom plugin side there is nothing i can do. I'm UTC +1 and all is okay for me. Also there was a US plugin user with some other problems recently - he didn't complain about timezones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1251 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 (edited) Yes, the times appear correct in the channels detail.Are you sure? Can you post it please! For me it is "StartTime":"\/Date(1446318900000+0100)\/" for example.Look at +0100 - it means UTC +1 hour.

leetxjd 1 Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 Just checked windows timezone - it is correct. I am going to see if there is a freenas setting for timezone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Test the url i'v given you on your NAS. Of course with the ip of your Windows machine instead of 127.0.0.1.You will see it's not correct! Okay you where faster than me. Nevertheless just try it anyway. Edited October 31, 2015 by pünktchen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reset FreeNAS to GMT. I rebooted FreeNAS and then refreshed the guide. The guide is still incorrect. It has to be something on the server side. I'll tolerate and see if the next update works. -LeeTXJD Edited November 1, 2015 by leetxjd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
