Have you tried running "fixtivotime " from the command window?
It appears that since daylight savings time stopped the time on my TiVo (Thompson, RC1 image) has been an hour out - I didn't notice until recently because the guide data is similarly transposed, so everything has been recording just fine. I've tried both a reboot and a power off, but neither make any difference. Any clues?

No, I hadn't....
But I have now - It found an NTP server on second try but the problem still remains.
Incidentally, date on the console shows the correct time, and did before I ran fixtivotime (I thought a before & after might be useful...) but the UI still shows the wrong time.
Normally if you change the time you need to reboot once or twice before it changes it properly in my experience.
I suspect you may be using an outdated ntpdate and/or your postcodezones files is not correct.
To test your current postcodezone file type the following and show the results:
cat -et /etc/postcodezones
If you want to load a good one, upload from:

I have attached the latest ntpdate.

Please note that the list in the above file is not complete for NZ Ref: http://forums.oztivo.net/showpost.ph...35&postcount=2.
If you use any of the codes not in the file above you will have to edit it ensuring the correct format as mentioned in the first two lines of the file.
Bizarrely enough it's still happening for me, even though Daylight savings has re-started.... I've kind of gotten used to the displayed times being an hour out. Everything still works, so it's just cosmetic, [and the times on the linux side of the fence are correct - this is only in the TiVO UI] but I have a new theory - I think the interface is following British DST (it's a Thompson Tivo running the NZ UK image)
When I first got the TIVO I couldn't use the UK image as the disk was too small, so I used one of the standard OZTivo ones. It's guided setup asked me about DST and I remember a big pointer to choose the NO DST option (presumable because OZ/NZTivo does it's timezones the Un*X way with tzdata files. I don't remember any such question in the UK Guided setup. It certainly isn't there if I re-run guided setup.
Is there anywhere else this setting could be? In MFS? The code must have dealt with UK summer time when it was a UK Tivo, I wonder if I have somehow re-activated some ancient code-path :-) Anyone know where the setting from US models guided setup is stored?
I am waiting to see if the time returns to normal when the UK comes of summer time in a few weeks....
