Here's another peculiarity I stumbled upon. No real clue what might be causing it to happen either. Was setting a timer for tonight from my guide screen and noticed the programme duration was incorrect:-
You will notice the orange focused bar has the programme start/end time from 20:00-22:00Hrs which is correct, but the duration at the top of the screen is showing 1Hr, instead of 2Hrs. There is nothing wrong with the variable I've used for displaying the duration. Even stranger is when I pull up the PVR Info Dialog, as that's showing the duration correctly as 2hrs:-
Initially, I thought this was an isolated case/quirk, since other programme items seemed to be showing the correct duration, but I discovered another instance just 2 channels below the original:-
So I'm not sure if the problem is being caused by the PVR addon, Kodi core or neither and something else completely?
UPDATE: Have updated from Kodi RC3 to RC5.2 and from 3.15.2 to 3.16.1 to see if that would make any difference. The good news is the original item mentioned is now showing the correct duration of 2 Hours. The bad news, I now have many items now displaying the wrong the duration on the guide screen, but displaying the correct info on the PVR info Dialog. A 5min TV entertainment update for instance is displaying a duration of 1hr 20mins. Most items are displaying durations correctly, so can't fully understand what is happening here......
