[xmltv-users] UK RT grabber still an hour out for me

[Neil B. <ne...@fn...>]

   Did anyone have any further thoughts on this?


   I'm currently running with a patched /usr/bin/tv_grab_uk_rt :

$ diff -u /usr/bin/tv_grab_uk_rt.orig /usr/bin/tv_grab_uk_rt

                  t("  Implicit timezone calculated to be '" . $implicit_tz 
. "'");
                  $tz = $implicit_tz;
+$tz = 'UTC';
              }

              # Calculate start time with correct UTC offset


   I've just noticed, however, that this stuffs up (or does not also fix) 
the auto-calculated tsod plus-1 times:  all my tsod plus-1 tagged channels 
have the shows on at the same time as the normal ones!  Luckily, I've not 
had to record off one of those yet ...


   To re-iterate, I do not believe this is a config. issue as both my home 
and work CentOS machines exhibit the same fault.  I think it's an artefact 
of a buggy perl DateManip 5 (forced by CentOS's perl 5.8, DM6 only working 
with 5.10+) and presumptions about such by XMLTV and/or tv_grab_uk_rt.

   I did ask on the Myth list but got no response:  is really *no-one* else 
using CentOS 5 with tv_grab_uk_rt?
