[mythtv-users] RE: Time change causes problems

[Bryan Halter]

Datadirect seems to think all programs are starting an hour earlier than 
they are.  My solution was to set my system time to EST instead of 
EST5EDT, the result is my myth system's clock is an hour slow.  Not a 
big deal since with everything being an hour slow all is OK, though an 
actual fix would be best.
