Description

The Web-ui for DVR (upcoming, finished, feiled recording) always uses 12h AM/PM format for start/stop times, Even though evrywhere else, when creating a recording or in the epg display the more usual 24h format is used.

Not really a bug, but I personally find it hard to read AM/PM format, especially, when all times everywhere else in the GUI use 24h format.

Maybe this is a setting I'm missing?

All entries in my DVR display in 24 hour format here, can you post a screenshot?

The javascript code is using toLocaleString() method: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_tolocalestring.asp , so it depends on the browser's setup (locale).

Hmm...
I almost thought so. It seems that my OS is configured to use English(US) but the input format is 24h. Chrome doesn't seem to understand that.
So I'll have to fight with chrome now or use something else.

So how come the other parts aren't using that too, or maybe tell the DVR to use what the others are using?

Or, this might be asking too much, get rid of Java :-)
Just a joke, this is a minor inconvenience after all. I do have bigger points (live epg update)
