What the time zone rules produce
| Moment | Local schedule time | UTC |
|---|---|---|
| One second before the change | 2025-04-24 23:59:59 EET | 2025-04-24 21:59:59 UTC |
| At the change | 2025-04-25 01:00:00 EEST | 2025-04-24 22:00:00 UTC |
The missing wall time cannot represent a programme instant
The clock moves from 00:00 to 01:00 at the boundary. Round-tripping 00:30 from local time through UTC finds no matching instant.
If the EPG shows the wrong slot
Ask for a corrected local time or the explicit UTC instant. Check the exporter before shifting the whole guide.
