[mythtv] Re: [patch] XMLTV timestamps, TimeOffset and mythfilldatabase

[William Uther]

Hi all,

   Now that 0.18 is out, can someone apply this fix?

Patch is available on the first email in this thread, or here:

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/engine?do=post_attachment; 
postatt_id=7026;list=mythtv

Changes:

  - Combines the addTimeOffset() and fromXMLTVDate() functions in  
mythfilldatabase so we have one XMLTV time parser (and we no longer  
parse, unparse and then re-parse timestamps)
  - Changes the meaning of a missing XMLTV timezone spec to mean UTC  
instead of local time (in line with the XMLTV spec). Setting the  
mythtv-setup TimeOffset value to "None" will allow people to achieve  
the old effect - the timestamp interpreted as local time.
  - Makes "Auto" TimeOffset setting do the conversion to local time for  
each program separately. This uses the new conversion routine added to  
handle the recent Qt timezone weirdness.

Thanks,

Will        :-}
