</div>Especially if you misconfigure/don't properly configure your MythWeb host.<br>
<br>
PHP tries to pick up the local time zone rules in use on the system on<br>
which it runs, but it seems that on many distros, it fails to do so<br>
properly. Simply add the time zone to php.ini.<br>
<br>
In other words, /every/ program that uses MythTV data (all backends and<br>
frontends and the MythWeb host(s)) /must/ run with the same time zone<br>
rules specified.<br>
<br>
Though the comment is way too specific and not completely accurate, the<br>
approach used for the fix is right here:<br>
<a href="http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/MythWeb#Time_Stamp_is_off_by_an_hour" target="_blank">http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/MythWeb#Time_Stamp_is_off_by_an_hour</a><br>
<br>
BTW, we go through this every 6 months. Just check the Ubuntu archives<br>
from 6 months ago (or a year ago or ...).<br>
