I have been fighting MythTV on a fresh Linuxmce install. Myth TV time is showing -5 hours off. I am in Eastern time zone, and the OS timezone is set properly. LinuxMCE time zone is set properly. I have been working on it for 2 days, and even did a complete reinstall with the same result. I am pulling my hair out.

Anyone know what I should try next?
Hi Donpaul,
Have you updated the Timezone offset in mythtv-setup?
Should I set the offset?
I scheduled a recording, and it worked perfectly and on time. Also, the guide is correct, the guide show times that is. The only thing off is the actual time that Myth displays. I thought that the offset had to do with the schedules, correct?
Also, both mythweb and mythfilldatabase shows the correct time.
Correct - offset is only for the guide.. I thought that (the guide) was your problem....
Sorry not sure what else it might be.
