I understand that the warning did not reappear after you changed
TimeOffet to "Auto"?

The important part is the presence of " +0200". The xmltv spec is 
mostly, but not 100%, ISO 8601.

I'm not sure which grabber it is, but:
_eu_epgdata got automatic time zone handling in June 2012 (just set it
to auto)
_ch_search got its last DST related fix to time handling in April 2012
