The problem

Hello, thank you for the great software. I used the LMS previously and switched to Music Assistant yesterday. It works great, but I found an issue. I'm living in Germany. So the correct timezone is UTC+2 in the summer. But my Squeezebox Radio showing the UTC time. I found no options to set the timezone in MASS. In HA I set the correct timezone. I also looked in the source code. But I'm unfamiliar with slimproto and found no real hint, how the time is sent. Also in the menu of the Squeezebox Radios I found no option.

How to reproduce

Use a Squeezebox Radio in another timezone.

Did the time show correctly with LMS (or not show at all?)

[SvenSchiffner]

It showed correctly. But in the LMS you also had an option to set the language and the timezone. The MASS integration is also using my language settings from HA correctly and is displayed in German.

I found to interesting function in the aioslimproto source code. This should be for older players like the boom, which gets the display data over slimproto and this should be the relevant function for newer players, which use the CLI. Their is no custom timezone. So in my opinion the timezone of the system is used. In the code for the HA add-on I found no hint for a custom timezone or the TZ environment variable. So maybe, the never player never got the correct local time.

Are the timestamps OK in the downloadable log file? (Settings>Core)

[SvenSchiffner]

Good point, the timestamps in the logs are in my local time and not UTC.
