[Freemint-discuss] Timezone and timestamp

[Peter S. <p....@sc...>]

Myself and others have reported timezone issues especially with
the change to summertime.


Android has a bug that means files sent over samba have their
timestamps set to the sysdate. So I use touch -t to reset the
times based on the filename. I have hacked up a perl script to
do this.


I do the mp4 files individually:

touch -t 201712101030 /tmp/20171210_103049.mp4

but in Thing they are shown with a time of 1 hour ahead.
I am using BST (GMT +1)

In this example the file is shown as 11:30 when I have stamped it 10:30



In bash the file time is correct:

bash-4.3# ls -l /tmp/
total 10460
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root     10692187 Dec 10 10:30 20171210_103049.mp4
