I can confirm that my hwclock is set to UTC and my /etc/localtime points to 
London. I'm unable to get access to my myth box at the moment to check the 
time offset in mythsetup, but I can confirm that the TimeOffset entry in the 
settings table is set to 'None'. With these settings my box correctly 
displays the localtime when using the 'date' command. The 'dvbdate' command 
also correctly sets the date/time. However all of the listing data in the 
database is one hour early - I'm using the on-air dvb stuff that is built 
into mythtv 0.17, rather than the tv_grab_dvb utility.

For the time being I'm pointing /etc/localtime to GMT - which allows 
recordings to work correctly. I'm going to try downgrading the verision of 
QT when I get a bit more time, but I'm not sure if this is a long term 
solution, since the changes made to the date/time stuff in QT might be 
permanent.
