Hello,

This week-end, where I live, we set clocks forward by one hour (daylight savings). The time change happened Sunday morning at 2:00am: When it used to be 2:00am, it is now 3:00am.
I had a program recording scheduled Sunday night (yesterday, after the time shift), at 9:10pm. Today, I noticed the recording started only an hour later than expected (10:10pm).

I tried to understand what may have caused it. I remembered the daylight saving time, and thought this may be related. I took a look at the TV Guide tab of the web interface of NextPVR: the vertical line of the time indicator properly indicates the current time (but I have no idea if this was the case yesterday).

However, I headed over to the "Scheduler" tab, and noticed that the start times of all my scheduled recurring recordings are all:
  • set back by an hour in the "Pending" list (e.g. if a recording used to start at 9:05pm, it now reads "10:05pm")
  • set forward by an hour in the "Recurring" list (e.g. if a recording used to start at 9:05pm, it now reads "8:05pm")

As a side note, I tested further: After scheduling a new recording by pressing the (+) icon, the new recording list item displays:
  • the correct start time in the "Pending" list
  • the wrong start time in the "Recurring" list (time is set back by an hour, now)

The clock of my NAS that hosts my NextPVR Docker container is updated properly and follows the daylight saving time properly (just confirmed).
I restarted by docker container, updated the Scheduler web page (Ctrl-F5), and the start times are still offset...
Have you ever faced this type of issue? Do you know what may be causing it?

Thank you.

The NextPVR web guide will show the wrong guide times after the change until the next day, so it should be ok today. NextPVR schedules by UTC so recordings should be correct.

I don't use manual recording since the guide based and timeslot rule work well for me but just tested one and it was ok. Did you check your browser timezone https://robots.net/software-and-applicat...-timezone/

Thank you Martin, I just did one more test, I scheduled a recurring, 1 minute, recording.
And although the time is wrong under the "Recurring" list, it recorded properly, at the right time.
I just need to keep it in mind. It's not a big deal, it doesn't hinder the schedules.
Thank you.

Cool

Could you send the zipped logs from NextPVR, the time should be correct in the recurring list.
