24h clock option for TV Guide

[luguber]

I'd like an option to chose between 12 and 24h clock in the TV Guide. I believe most of Europe at least uses 24 hour clock.
It's not a big deal though as I mostly uses the guide via Kodi where I have 24h clock, so its just a "nice to have" thing.

NextPVR doesn't control this. Did you check your desktop settings for displaying date/time? Also some browsers have different methods so you may need to do an internet search

Yes, I have everything set up with 24h. But you gave me a pointer there that I didn't think of. If this isn't set by NextPVR then it must communicate with the browser at some level to select locales
So a little search in the web root folder gave me this:
(in /opt/nextpvr/system/wwwroot/guide.html)

Code:

        // populate the timelines at top and bottom of the screen
        function loadTimeline() {

            var date = new Date(Date.UTC(2012, 11, 12, 3, 0, 0));
            var dateString = date.toLocaleTimeString();
            var militaryTime = true;
            //apparently toLocaleTimeString() has a bug in Chrome. toString() however returns 12/24 hour formats. If one of two contains AM/PM execute 12 hour coding.
            if (dateString.match(/am|pm/i) || date.toString().match(/am|pm/i)) {
                //12 hour clock
                militaryTime = true;
            }      

So it turns out to be a bug in Chrome. I tried with Firefox, and well it gave me 24h.
A dirty fix for me was just to changed the last militaryTime to true, to always force 24h clock.
