Daylight Saving

[TheHam1]

Hi
First time poster on this forum.
I just purchased a V2 but cannot find any information on what to do for changes due to daylight saving.
Can someone point me to the information or tell me how to do this.
My only other BeyonWiz is a DP-P2 so a very old one with far different menus.
Thanks in Advance

You shouldn't need to do anything special. As long as you have the correct time region set up, then it will automatically adjust for you.

Around 1 April, there were some DST-related issues (link to IceTV forum) with the IceTV EPG (and because of that, with some recordings). Those problems seem to have been ironed out now.

If you use broadcast time rather than network time (NTP) as the source for your Beyonwiz's time of day clock, even now, some 20 years and 40 DST changes since the introduction of digital TV in Australia, you can still expect some broadcaster to get either their broadcast time or some part of their EPG messed up over any DST change. Using network time for the time source will fix any issues with the broadcast time data, but there's not much you can do about incorrect broadcast EPG data.

tl;dr: Connect you Beyonwiz to the Internet and change the time setting to use network time. It should just work, but don't be surprised if your (regional) broadcaster stuffs up their EPG.

As many have said, when the timezone is correctly configured and using network time, the box just does the right thing and knows what time it is.

However, any timers set before the daylight transition for programs after the transition need to be checked after the recalcitrant broadcasters (still same 3 of 6 in Melbourne) have loaded correct EPG data (sometime Sunday morning usually).

Thanks for that i will check when it records tonight.
