Mediaset incorrect timetable

Hello everyone, since yesterday I realized that the epg downloaded with webgrab ++ of all channels Mediaset has 1 hour in advance on real transmissions, it's just my problem?

Thanks for the help, Marco.

You should have left UTC timezone. Your player or epg program will add 1 hour.

Hi Mat8861, I reset the UTC time zone and the downloaded epg is still 1 hour ahead.

1. Provide an example and guide.xml
2. Did you clear previous epg ?
3. Did you check your device clock ?
4. what are you using to view epg ?

1. I enclose file guides.xml of 1 channel Mediaset (to lighten the file), as you can see the file guide.xml is 1 hour behind the site and Mediaset programs.
2. Always delete old files.
3. The time on my PC is correct.
4. I use the guide.xml file on Mediaportal which in turn is a Kodi addon.
I would like to clarify that the data collected by Webgrab of other websites are correct, such as Rai, Sky ......

Removing from the file guide.xml the "timezone" only to Mediaset programs is very complicated and laborious .. a solution that intervenes on the file mediaset.it.ini is not possible?

Hi, I found this line in the WebGrab ++. log file I thought it might help you figure out where the problem is

[Info] time offset change detected for site mediaset.it from: +0100 to: +0000

Marcoviti there is no problem. Site.ini is UTC and against website shows are 1 hour back, this is correct.
example
"20181110131000 +0000" stop="20181110134500 +0000" channel="Canale 5"
title Una Vita
on website is at 14.10 (one hour later). My epg program, (epg-import) see the time is UTC and add one hour to match the local time, same happens on my cell phone. As blackbear199 explained mediaportal does not recognize the time offset (+0000 is utc, but in Italy is +0100) so does not "adjust" the correct time.
In your specific case you have 2 solutions:
1. change timezone to UTC+01:00 on mediaset, thiis will fix your mediaportal, but will be incorrect in other applications
2. after you run wg++ , run WG2MP.exe wich will correct time for your mediaportal with your local time (will add 1 hour)

What I do not understand .. is because the Grab from other websites is correct and from Mediaset after the site change no longer works

May be other italian sites do not use utc...or simply the time is already Italy (Europe/Rome) time.
Like i said in you case it's better to set all to local time (as suggested by blackbear199) or if you need to have epg also in other applications set utc+0100 and that's it.
