Comment(by mdean):

 In mythtv-setup, there's a setting:

 Your Local Timezone (for XMLTV)[[BR]]
 Used if the XMLTV data comes from a different timezone than your own. This
 adjust the times in the XMLTV EPG data to compensate. 'Auto' converts the
 XMLTV time to local time using your computer's timezone. 'None' ignores
 the XMLTV timezone, interpreting times as local.

 When you say "GMT-6 as the time offset," do you mean you changed this
 (MythTV) setting to "-0600"?  Doing so would cause exactly the issue you
 saw.  This setting is really only meant for users on the edge of a time
 zone who receive programming from a source in the other zone or whose
 listings provider provide incorrect times.  It is not a means for
 specifying your local time zone to MythTV.  Therefore, most everyone
 should use Auto for it.
