Comment (by danielk):

 (In [11430]) Refs #2143. Fix ATSC EIT time offset. (leaving ticket open
 for possible backport to 0.20-fixes).

 The problem was that our offset between Unix time and GPS time was off by
 five hours combined with a phantom localtime->UTC conversion in QDateTime
 it made EIT times wrong most places most of the time (annoyingly it was
 correct for me when I last checked this since my timezone was 5 hours from
 UTC and 5 + 5 - 5 = 5). We were all compensating for this with a manual
 timezone setting in mythtv-setup, but obviously this should have been
 automatic. Now it is...

 The DB update sets everyone's timezone compensation to "Auto" for EIT
 time, and disables the UI for this setting in mythtv-setup. If it turns
 out to be needed for other reasons I will re-enable it.
