Date-time display formats in DVBViewer?


daffy

Recommended Posts

What is the strategy for formatting date-time output for display in DVBViewer?

 

In the OSD Mini-EPG I currently see "Freitag 06. Januar". In the (non-OSD) EPG window I see "Fr 06.01"

 

In my Windows XP user profile, regional settings have been configured such that

 

* short date format: 06.01.2006

* long date format: Freitag, 6. Januar 2006

 

I am surprised that I see non-standard date output on screen?

 

FWIW, I'd love to see "Freitag, 6. Januar 2006" in the Mini-EPG and "06.01.2006" in the EPG window, although I appreciate that this might cause some space problems.

cd c:\programme\DVBViewer

find osd-documentation.html

 

--> error - osd-documentation.html not found

Even though the above tells me without reading any docs that I need to start with

 

#Time.

 

and then follow up with a (supposedly) Delphi date-time format string where all white-space is replaced with underscores, nothing tells me how to say

 

#Time.[system long date setting]

 

(IOW, stick to the system default - and do not use a custom format - which is exactly what I think the majority of users across different cultures will want).
