Hi. Thanks for this program it's nice. However, I have discovered an issue with the windows app regarding timezones and the current time for today and search filters.

I'm using a windows time zone of +10 UTC, and when the program launches it seems to internally set itself as UTC +0 (or GMT) time, even though it displays the proper local time in the GUI (top left). So if the time is say 9AM and I click the Today shortcut it will find no matching EPG data. This occurs right up until until 10AM on my windows clock. If it's after 10AM then it displays the remainder of Today's shows.

I can trick the program to work as expected by setting the Windows timezone to UTC, and manually set the clock to my local time. And it displays everything as it should.

But the problem I have is that I'd like to view EPGs from Japan +9 while being in Australia +10, and I usually have a batch call before Nxtvepg starts to set the timezone temporarily to Japan, so from Australia the program appear as they're in Japan at the time. And then when I shut the program it resets back to Australia time.

I wonder why the program is internally seeing UTC despite it displaying correct date time in the GUI based on windows clock. Is there any option to correct the timezone within the program? Thanks
