Guide Time 1 Hour Off

[swantzilla]

I posted in another forum with no response.

Any input on how to fix the guide being 1 hour off. Any ideas? Mag254 and Formuler Z7+ with Rocket service.
Thank you.

Any word on this, I’m having the same issue

I believe it is a server problem, not us

Can't You go into Your own Settings in those Boxes and Change Your Own Time Zone to another...?!? Maybe pick a City with a Time Zone that is 1 Hour dif than Yours and see if that will do the Trick temporarily...?!?

Anyone have a fix, currently using dreamlink t2 tried switching the zones but that didn’t work. Any word on how to fix this

[kronic187]

I'v tried it all.

On my T1 Plus, I can't get the EPG working without physically hovering over the EPG 1 by 1 sometimes. Sometimes it does not show anything in certain channels and then yo get a dozen EPG populate randomly.

The 1 hour thing has been like this since like forever for me. I tried it all. On the Portal settings in DOL2, DOL, even in the android app settings. Moved it forward, back, daylight, etc. It never correlates and never is spot on. The thing I hate the most is not the EPG is off by 1 hour, its that if you are hovering over a channel that you want to see a specific movie or something, if you are not on the correct time either to the left, center, or right, you don't get to hop into the channel until you hover over the exact EPG show thats on LIVE with the 1 hour off. Its kind of weird to explain.

IDK why dreamlink just shifts over the 1 hour selection to have the EPG cursor over by 1 hour. This would solve huge pains in the butt when trying to load channel directly from EPG and the 1 hour shift can be left by server if they feel like not touching it. Someone just needs to decide on something, either Rocket supplier or Dreamlink. Maybe dreamlink can shift it by coding with an update that is downloadable onto USB that is not OTI (over the internet) / mandatory if user has a working epg by some other provider...

I Posted this info awhile ago, but I guess it did not deserve to be a sticky
here is the info again;
NTP Pool Timeservers
I am wondering if anyone has tried this, or if it may result in a workaround Fix for the MAG / DL (Stalker) EPG guide offset problem.
I figure if it does work, the STB Time will be off, but the EPG guide data will be correct.
I do not have any of these Units, so if someone can try this and feedback the results. /Thank You

When setting up the MAG unit, the NTP server is usually entered as "pool.ntp.org".
This will search for the closest time server and save the closest servers to your location.
You cannot adjust the Timezone as it is automatic.
You can though, enter a timeserver from another country or zone, that is offset time wise, of your guide data.
The format URL is "xx.pool.ntp.org" where the xx is the country or region.
Below is a list of countries that have active Timeservers in the NTP Pool;

Find a country in the offset timezone and use the URL listed for the localization of your STB.

I'm curious!!!

This is for a mag box, I’m don’t remeber seeing a spot on the dreamlinks for the ntp servers. Maybe I overlooked it?

You're a busy man. Thanks.
It would be nice to get a confirmation that the Method works beforehand.
