v22 Datetime refactoring - TESTERS NEEDED
#1
Hello everybody!

After nearly four years in the works, I am ready to merge PR modernizing all internal date and time keeping in Kodi!

As this change will affect everyone (who wants to miss the show recording, after all?), I NEED TESTERS!

Please back your Kodi profile up, install the test build matching your device, start using it and post your observations in this topic!

Builds:

* Android ARM: https://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/andr...bi-v7a.apk
* Android ARM64: https://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/andr...64-v8a.apk
* Android X86: https://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/andr...no-x86.apk

* IOS ARM64: https://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/darw...-ios64.deb

* TVOS: https://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/darw...9-tvos.deb

* LG WebOS:

* OSX X86_64: https://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/osx/...x86_64.dmg

* Windows X86: https://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/wind...no-x86.exe
* Windows X86_64: https://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/wind...no-x64.exe

Bug report:

It adds 1 hour to my local/system time. Tried to find some kind of setting under interface and/or system to fix this time displacement unsuccessfully.

Windows 11 x64
Local time: central, GTM -6

Let me know if you need some kind of log.

Are you in Mexico?  Perhaps you are in another GMT -6 that supports DST.

OK, reproduced: https://github.com/microsoft/STL/issues/4997

Can you please run Powershell and post screenshot of this command?

powershell:

(Get-Item C:\Windows\System32\icu.dll).VersionInfo

I would like to know if ICU was ever updated in 2024.

Thanks for the confirmation! I have asked our colleagues in charge of Windows builds how should we proceed with the fix. Will do another build once this is done.

To my understanding these are to combat a Y2038 bug, and currently on Linux it's not possible to search earlier than a certain point in time.
It supposed to resolve a build issue in Debian and maybe some more stuff this modernization fixes .
