[vdr] EPG extention - what's on 20:15



Hi,
 
    I discovered that it would be great to extend the EPGs What's on now - What's on next feature. My idea is to define three (or even more) times in the EPG setup and use the keys 1,2,3 to see what's on at xx:xx.
 
My favourite will be 20:15 because in Germany it's the prime time when the evening movies start.
 
I tried to implement that yesterday and got it working within 15 minutes. At the moment I have 20:15 hard coded to key 1 and no setup options yet.
 
If there is a 'public interest' in that functionality I would implement it and provide a patch. Maybe it would be an idea for vdr 1.3.18?
 
I know that the tvonscreen plugin can do it but I like the built in EPG better. My girlfriend's eyes are not the very best ones and she is not able to read tvonscreen.
 
 
When implementing what's on 20:15 I had to look for events around 19:15. I think this has something to do with GMT and MET. Is there a system function to get GMT from a local time?
 
 
Peter
