[mythtv] Date strings in Browse mode

[Bruce Markey]

I rarely use Browse mode so I don't know when this problem
first appeared but I now see no descriptions but only a
message like "(-1440 minutes)".

I traced it down to a problem with converting a time string
back to Qt::ISODate. Neither the conversion to a string to
store in infoMap nor the conversion back to QDateTime has
changed in several months. Therefore, I assume that my Qt
version from debian has changed and is more strict about the
date format for conversion.

If I add a verbose message right before the conversion in
TV::GetNextProgram, mythfrontend shows the following when I
hit "O" for browse mode.

2004-05-11 12:13:25 Starttime 20040511121300
QTime::setHMS Invalid time 30:00:00.000
QDate::setYMD: Invalid date 2004-51-12
QDateTime::fromString: Parameter out of range
QTime::setHMS Invalid time 30:00:00.000
QDate::setYMD: Invalid date 2004-51-12

The docs say "If f is Qt::ISODate, the string format corresponds
to the ISO 8601 extended specification for representations of
dates and times, which is YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS" so it appears to
be parsing it like this:

20040511121300
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS
2004-51-12?30:00:00

Browse mode has worked for me in the past. Has anyone else seen
this problem?
