Before generating the title we convert the timestamp to localtime. That can 
produce non-matching titles in GPX (as in your case). But it works for most 
apps which converts and shows the timestamps in localtime. 

The problem is, that our trackfilter creates the trackname based on a 
time-stamp and doesn't know, how the following output module(s) handles the 
timestamps (local or GMT). 

Currently I don't see a workaround, but I'm thinking over a trackfilter 
option, which says "Titles GMT based, please".

O.K.
