Hi,

So I am using xtream - editor and iotv-epg to get my epg on a vu solo 2 for my iptv, the issue I have is the code is always an hour out ie it is displaying the program starting an hour earlier than it should. I have adjusted xtream - editor to be the correct time shift but no matter what I choose it always displays as wrong.

I have downloaded the m3u it provides and it has the correct time shift info in it, so I am wondering if it had stored it somewhere and need to be edited or something like that?

Anyone else using these options that can help?

Hi,
are the IPTV stations from your region? If not then I think it is a timezone problem.

No i am in New Zealand and the streams are UK and USA, i have logged a support ticket with Xtream Editor and their reply was because an enigma2 box doesn't use the m3u file the time shift setting i set there don't matter on their site and it is a local setting on the box.

My time zone is set correctly, NZ time +12 GMT, so is there another setting somewhere i am missing? i have checked the manual but that didn't say too much about it?

I don't suppose this is at all relevant, but UK time changed from GMT to GMT+1 a week ago (British Summer Time).

possibly, we just had our DLS time change on Sunday NZ time, so clocks back an hour, but i would have thought this shouldn't have mattered and should automatically adjust? it was an issue before our change as well.

I did delete the EPG and reload so it is fresh as well.

Deleting the epg isn't always as easy as it might seem - how did you do it?

menu - system - EPG - load/save/delete then delete, i think that was the menu structure. The guide had completely gone having deleted this way, i also have it setup to delete the guide when importing under EPG-importer.

is there another way?

ok so deleted the EPG using the above method and reloaded, still no luck, i adjust the time zone setting to +13 and +11 to see if that made any difference and all it did was change the time accordingly with the EPG still out by an hour.

I am guessing it is an issue with the EPG being delivered from xtream editor, is there any way of looking at the EPG.dat file?

Turns out it was to do with iptv-epg. Com and their feed, they have an issue with summer time not being picked up correctly, hopefully they have a fix soon!

Thanks all so tried to help
