Google Calendars Timezone Off-By-One Hour
-
Ever since Daylight Savings Time (EDT) ended, the time for any events created in Google Calendar are being set back one hour. The events display correctly in Google Calendar, iOS, and on the desktop, but MagicMirror seems to assume it needs to roll back the times. I have attempted using older versions of MagicMirror (back to 2.10.0) and I am currently sitting on the develop branch, each without luck. I would appreciate any and all assistance and/or advice the community has to give. I will also be willing to help troubleshoot any way that I can.
Thank you in advance!

@sdetweil I am currently running on the develop branch. I did forget to run
npm install
, but that did not change anything after restarting the mirror again. The weird thing is, not all events are an hour off. What should I look for? -
@sdetweil FWIW, deleting and re-creating the event seems to work; hopefully this won’t be a recurring thing when the time changes again. :)
If you still wish to troubleshoot, I’m ready and available.

@lksdf978 did u save the prior event?
I would like to see the info in the ics file ( it’s just text)
I will be away from my system til next sat 14th.

Here is the beginning of the ics (before the first event), and one of the events that are off-by-one:
BEGIN:VCALENDAR PRODID:-//Google Inc//Google Calendar 70.9054//EN VERSION:2.0 CALSCALE:GREGORIAN METHOD:PUBLISH X-WR-CALNAME:John Paul X-WR-TIMEZONE:America/New_York BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/New_York X-LIC-LOCATION:America/New_York BEGIN:DAYLIGHT TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0400 TZNAME:EDT DTSTART:19700308T020000 RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=3;BYDAY=2SU END:DAYLIGHT BEGIN:STANDARD TZOFFSETFROM:-0400 TZOFFSETTO:-0500 TZNAME:EST DTSTART:19701101T020000 RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=11;BYDAY=1SU END:STANDARD END:VTIMEZONE
The following displays as 6:30am through 9:30am

For comparison, here is an event I created yesterday that displays correctly:
BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20201105T130500 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20201105T140500 RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;WKST=SU;UNTIL=20210602T035959Z;BYDAY=MO,TH,TU,WE DTSTAMP:20201106T114410Z UID:3cr68na953sr1uaei12jg2p292@google.com CREATED:20201105T171800Z DESCRIPTION: LAST-MODIFIED:20201105T180504Z LOCATION: SEQUENCE:0 STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:JP Specials Call TRANSP:OPAQUE X-APPLE-TRAVEL-ADVISORY-BEHAVIOR:AUTOMATIC BEGIN:VALARM ACTION:NONE TRIGGER;VALUE=DATE-TIME:19760401T005545Z X-WR-ALARMUID:28E7B417-A7FD-4035-B013-BB8DE130B977 UID:28E7B417-A7FD-4035-B013-BB8DE130B977 ACKNOWLEDGED:20201105T180504Z X-APPLE-DEFAULT-ALARM:TRUE END:VALARM END:VEVENT

@lksdf978 great thanks. I think this is the rrrule problem. the fix is waiting to be merged.
-
@lksdf978 the latest fixes have been merged into the develop branch. you can git pull to refresh them. npm install again to get the latest node-ical update too
put that entry back in an ics file in the calendar module folder to test
-
My apologies for the late response, but I just pulled down develop, did an npm install, and reloaded MagicMirror. The issue still persists. I even went so far as deleting node_modules and reinstalling just in case. I did check the git log to be sure the changes in node_ical version was present, and it is. Any other ideas?

@lksdf978 still waiting for one fix to be accepted
