Last night around 11:00pm I used the scheduler to set the recording time for a program the next afternoon which started at 1:00pm and lasted until 2:00pm, a one hour program. I set the scheduler to start at "12:59pm 5/17/13" and end at "2:01pm 5/17/13". I came home from work this afternoon and the show didn't record!!!!!! I looked at the scheduler and saw that the date was set for 5/18/13!!!!! Since this happened the first time I always triple check to make sure I have the correct time and date. This is the second or third time this has happened since I started using ProgDVB a few months ago!!! I haven't used the scheduler hardly at all because I can't trust it to record anything I set. I have found that when I set the scheduler to record something on the same day it usually does fine but if I set it for something a day ahead, the scheduled date increments forward by one day as well when the clock turns midnight. Does anyone know why the heck it does that??? Or how to make it stop??? Am I doing something wrong????

You mean problem in dialog? Can you make some screens for show this problem?

I tried to get the problem to repeat like it did originally but this could also be a cause of the problem.

I enter a starting date 5/17/2013. I enter an ending date 5/17/2013. I clicked the down arrow button to move the starting hours from around 11pm back to 12:59pm. I clicked the down arrow button to move the ending time back to 2:01pm. Then I double check the start and end date to make sure it's the 17th and finally click the "OK" button. Look what happened with the date. . . It changed to the 18th instead of the 17th like I set it for.

Thanks for pictures. Added to my bug list.

Sorry for long delay. But no bug in ProgDVB. You send end time to 2:01 and start time to 12:59 of same day. That is impossible and ProgDVB move end time to next day.

Thanks for the update.

I'm not sure I understand how a 1 hour and 2 minute recording is impossible, it starts at 12:59pm and ends at 2:01pm, even if it was for "am" it should still work. It only jumps a day ahead when I set it a day or more before my recordings start day, if I wait until after 12:00am on the day of the recording to set the timer for "that day" it doesn't jump a day ahead. If I was setting it for 11:59pm and ending at 2:01 pm on the same day I could understand how that would be impossible.

I first tell it what "day" I want to record on, then the "start" and "end" time. As long as I'm not setting the start time earlier than the end time on the same day I don't understand how there could be a problem. Am I setting the recording time incorrectly somehow?

Thanks for your help.

May be 24h clock better in this case?

I noticed that the calendar day did not jump when I set my recording tonight. I guess you were able to fix the problem in one of the last two updates?

Still same. Not bug. User select date and time and ProgDVB store it.
But may be 24h format more friendly?

Oh okay. I looked last week for an option in ProgDVB to change the timer clock to a 24 hour clock but couldn't find one. Where is this feature located in the program? Thanks.

No feature. ProgDVB use local format from windows. But may be need add this function?

Sounds like I will have to change the system clock. I'd rather not have to do that. If that could be added as a feature that would be great. Thanks.
