sageTV time is one hour ahead, why?

[vorius]

I cant find out how sageTV is determining the time but it thinks it is one hour ahead. Maybe from the tv data it downloads?

how do i fix this?

this only started happening recently

It is due to the new DST time change.

Basically, you need to make sure that Windows has the DST patch and that your Java version has the patch as well.

So does Windows show the proper time and Sage's clock is one hour behind? Or are both clocks showingn the same time, 1 hour late?

SO, it sounds like you have hte Windows DST patch installed so windows has the correct time. You didn't manually adjust your windows time?



What Java version are you running? nielm posted the following info in another thread.

Item 19: Which versions of the Java SE platform are already USA 2007 DST ready?

Java SE 6 FCS
Java SE 5.0 update 6 and above
Java SE v1.4.2_11

(Edit.)

According to a separate article, the version numbers are slightly different:

1.3.1_18
1.4.2_13
5.0_u9
6

That article also contains a link to a tool to update Java's TZ info without doing a full upgrade.

Theoretically Java applications do not have to be changed.
