Timezone issue - CCT - timestamp is shifted 1 hour earlier

Postby davibocce » Tue Jul 19, 2011 4:33 am

Hi,

I am having a weird timezone issue. I am in CCT timezone (China), and all my imported hands show a timestamp shifted one hour earlier. For example, if I played a hand starting on today 00:50am CCT, the hand history file will show the correct timestamp, but the imported hand will show yesterday 23:50pm.

As you can see, this is quite annoying because I often start game around midnight here, and PT3 will split my session into two days, causing problems with viewing results for the day, etc.

I never had this problem when I was in PST time zone.

My timezone setup in various places:

Windows - CCT
PokerStars client - CCT

This may be related to the wrong database on CCT daylight saving time?? Basically China tried daylight saving time many years ago, but cancelled it after a few years. Could it be the case that you guys still use an old timezone DB that enables DST for CCT timezone? (a wild guess of course - I don't know if the clock will be turned in that direction or not)

Any hand history file will have this problem. I submitted the support ticket and hand history file.
