[Solved] adjust the xmltv listings by a smidge

Post by amyo777 »

So I have the xmltv working I am using the schedules direct (I already have it for my dish & local antenna listings), for my German TV channels. The data looks pretty good. But the listings times are off by a couple minutes for me (later). I'm not sure if this is just a propogation delay (content has to get from DE to my provider's network, then probably an auth exchange before it gets to me in Chicago.) or if it is something else, but it is consistently 2 minutes (so not per channel).

Is there anyway to adjust all the listings without doing a brute database update? Has anyone else faced this?

I'm not aware of an easy way to offset listing times.

Have you considered adjusting your recording rules for the shows if interest
with Start Offset and End Offset?

Thank you! I knew I had seen a screen with that somewhere before!
