That time (or more to the point, time zone offset) being wrong seems like a significant clue. That suggests to me that the oztivo mothership emulator is not being told/understanding that your tivo is in NZ, so it is defaulting to Vic/NSW/Tas timezone (that is a thing that hd.oztivo.net does, if does not recognise the location as NZ, WA, SA, NT, Qld). The timeZoneOffset ought to be 43200 for NZ, because it does not include the hour added for summer time. The thing to look for in tclient.log is where there are log entries about HServerRqst do they include &IDB_COUNTRY=NZ? Posting the output of grep HServerRqst /var/log/tclient would probably be helpful.
If we can't come up with a better plan, maybe it is worth doing a guided setup on this tivo to make sure it clearly identifies itself as NZ. I am a little wary of guided setup in general though, because if your networking etc is not working properly, you can end up in a loop of guided setup (if the guided setup fails, you have to do another guided setup, you can't abort). If that happens and you can't fix the networking problem (or whatever is making guided setup fail) and it doesn't fix itself afer a few guided setup attempts then I don't know any better way to recover than wiping the hard disk (restoring a clean image onto the hard disk), which means losing recordings, season passes, etc unless they were on the image you restored from. So do a backup on your hard disk before trying guided setup, m'kay?
