        @WallysWellies you will need to use my upgrade script and reply no to keeping the changed files
        see https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

        note upgrade is a two part process
        test, do nothing (highlight exposed files, if any)
        do upgrade

                Hi Sam,

                I’m afraid this issue has reoccurred on an event that is not full day but instead is supposed to be the last in a series. I believe it’s the same issue though where the timezone / BST is causing the problem.

                Sample ICS data below:

                BEGIN:VCALENDAR
                METHOD:PUBLISH
                PRODID:Microsoft Exchange Server 2010
                VERSION:2.0
                X-WR-CALNAME:Test Calendar
                BEGIN:VTIMEZONE
                TZID:GMT Standard Time
                BEGIN:STANDARD
                DTSTART:16010101T020000
                TZOFFSETFROM:+0100
                TZOFFSETTO:+0000
                RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=-1SU;BYMONTH=10
                END:STANDARD
                BEGIN:DAYLIGHT
                DTSTART:16010101T010000
                TZOFFSETFROM:+0000
                TZOFFSETTO:+0100
                RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=-1SU;BYMONTH=3
                END:DAYLIGHT
                END:VTIMEZONE
                BEGIN:VEVENT
                RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;UNTIL=20250630T173000Z;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=MO;WKST=MO
                UID:040000008200E00074C5B7101A82E00800000000E05582F27408DB01000000000000000
                 010000000E892CDFA6C0E4E4298E1C987B4791120
                SUMMARY:Calendar Event
                DTSTART;TZID=GMT Standard Time:20250331T183000
                DTEND;TZID=GMT Standard Time:20250331T200000
                CLASS:PUBLIC
                PRIORITY:5
                DTSTAMP:20250630T164141Z
                TRANSP:OPAQUE
                STATUS:CONFIRMED
                SEQUENCE:0
                LOCATION:
                X-MICROSOFT-CDO-APPT-SEQUENCE:0
                X-MICROSOFT-CDO-BUSYSTATUS:BUSY
                X-MICROSOFT-CDO-INTENDEDSTATUS:BUSY
                X-MICROSOFT-CDO-ALLDAYEVENT:FALSE
                X-MICROSOFT-CDO-IMPORTANCE:1
                X-MICROSOFT-CDO-INSTTYPE:1
                X-MICROSOFT-DONOTFORWARDMEETING:FALSE
                X-MICROSOFT-DISALLOW-COUNTER:FALSE
                X-MICROSOFT-REQUESTEDATTENDANCEMODE:DEFAULT
                X-MICROSOFT-ISRESPONSEREQUESTED:FALSE
                END:VEVENT
                END:VCALENDAR
                

                I’ve stripped out most of the content other than the event in question and the timezone info.

                You’ll see that the DTSTART and DTEND data shows the correct start and end time but the RRULE shows the UNTIL as an hour before the event so the event does not show on the MM calendar module.

                The event in Outlook shows the series being every Monday until 1st July.

                I’m not sure if this “bug” is a problem with Outlook or MagicMirror.

                Happy to start a new thread, or log a bug on GitHub if either of those is preferrable.
