Re: [mythtv-users] Incorrect listings after DST clock change (UK)

   You can't just re-call Date_Init, you have to play silly wotsits, but 
it's do-able.

   That said, I did find another explicit call of 'Date_Init("TZ=UTC")' 
within tv_grab_uk_rt itself, which seems to go back to the year dot in 
various guises, so I can't tell why it's there.


   The following *in lieu* of the Date_Init in the grabber [also] fixes the 
issue *for me*:

  die "Error: You cannot specify --quiet with --debug, exiting"
      if ($opt->{quiet} && $opt->{debug});


   Again, this only appears to be an issue for DM5 users, but I couldn't say 
if this would break anyone else or not.  I *still* don't see anyone else 
with a problem.
