wrong local time

[lefty101]

Hi,

It seems the app doesn't use the local time of the appliance and use the NextPVR server time
(NAS docker in my case. The time in the NextPVR server log is the same).
I have exactly -2h difference in the time appears in the upper right corner of the app and in the TV Guide.
This is exactly the UTC/GMT offset in my location.
I have this problem in 2 different Android TVs (Sony and shield TV).
Windows NextPVR client on my laptop use the correct local time.

Does it work as expected or a missing option to set time offset which need to be added ?

Thanks,
Shmuel

I presume that you are using the uidroid client. And, currently, this behavior is as expected. (The display screens are being generated on the server, so the time on the server is what is displayed.)

I believe that sub has indicated that he might be able to change that in a future release. It's not a common situation, but I have it too when I'm using a uidroid (or Roku) client at my vacation house in NC accessing my home server in MN, so I feel your "pain".

Brett is correct for remote connections in another timezone, but I suspect you need to set the timezone in your Docker properly. I have posted solutions a few times if you search the forum.

Thanks for the fast response.

Yes. I refer to  uidroid client. Hope it will be changed by sub in the near future.
But why you say this behavior not common ? 
From what you say it occur to everyone use this client and his server time isn't exactly UTC.

I guess you missed my post.

Do you mean the solution of changing the epg file ?

The situation BrettB describes is only relevant to people using UIDroid from a remote location, in a different timezone to the server. It's not clear if that is the situation you're asking about.

If you're talking about client and server in the same location (ie, within same home), are you running the server in Docker? If so, you'd probably needing to set the timezone as Martin said above.
