Airing date of Shows is wrong

Sonarr version 3.0.1.351:
Mono version 5.18.0.240:
OS: Linux - Ubuntu 18.04:
Log: https://pastebin.com/sP4LeGnP

The Airing Date / time in the calendar seems to be off.
All the shows seem to get aired a day after the real airing.
I already searched the forum / web but couldn’t find a solution. I already checked the time settings in ubuntu itself and already viewed the log, where the time is correct as well.

Otherwise it is an awesome piece of software,

the calendar shows the date/time the show airs - in your timezone - so unless you (the operating system sonarr is running on) are in the same timezone the series is aired in then its going to show up elsewhen in sonarr.

im in australia, all my us based shows display in the middle of the next day because from my timezone thats when they actually air

Well then the calculations (or settings) just have to be off. There was an airing of a new episode of a show I’m watching on Sunday (local time) and the calendar shows me the release time on monday 4 am.
So I already had the Episode in my Library even tho it “wasn’t even aired yet”

what series? and what what timezone is your system using?

open the series in sonarr, mouseover the links, click on the tvdb - whats the airs date/time in there? is it correct?

Outlander, The Magicians and Brooklyn Nine-Nine
CET - Berlin
I’m at work right now (so I can’t use sonarr to open the tvdb) but when I search those series manually they have the correct time (Outlander on Sunday and not today).

Outlander airs 8:00 PM on Sunday CST (GMT-7) according to TVDB.

im in GMT+10, 17 hours in front (-1 for daylight savings) so it displays for me at Mon 1200-1300

Berlin CET (GMT+1) is 8 hours in front of CST so 8pm Sunday CST should be 0400 Monday.

if youre seeing it at 0300 then youve got DST active

Magicians airs 9:00 PM on Wednesday so should show in your calendar at 0300 Thursday

Brooklyn Nine-Nine airs 9:00 PM on Thursday so should show in your calendar at 0300 Friday

i dont know if the shows actually air in CST or if thats just the timezone TVDB uses but its what its all based off

note - as its an hour out, either we or they are in DST. i can never remember if we are or not so if you arent then they are.

Yeah I am on DST (forgot that it obviously influences the time).
Those times do match my calendar times, so the calculation is correct.

I understand that sonarr is calculating the airing time to my local time and that those 2 moments are strictly spoken at the same time. But then why was I able to download the last episodes of Outlander and Brooklyn Nine-Nine before my local time release as it would mean it shouldn’t be released yet in the us.

not sure. web releases can come out early. someone somehow got their hands on an episode and uploaded it

Ok I will just have to go with that.
Thanks a lot for the explanation.
