I’d just iterate over them and apply a specific style to each afterwards.

Comment on Time Zone Correction in TV Forecast HD by Kyle

I got it working correctly. I wrongly assumed that I needed to automatically change the time zone, but when I turned Time Zone Correction off, the app automatically detected my time zone based on the iPad’s time.

Everything is working perfectly. It’s a great app!

@Kyle, does the time appear correct inside the app? I mean, do you suspect there is a problem with the notification? Or with the way TV Forecast is calculating the air time generally?

So, in theory, if I am in Chicago, I should turn “Apple When Added” on and Adjusted -1 Hour, correct?

This is what I did, but I didn’t get a notification for Futurama yesterday until 10 PM, one hour after the show aired in Chicago (it airs at 10 PM eastern time and Chicago is on central time).

Any ideas?

Can’t wait! Apple is taking too long to approve the app.

Hi Matt,
Why do you not make a factory function that generates UIlabels for you and sets the default settings that you want. That would be the *proper* way to do things.

cheers,

?:)

Nice, I like this approach. I tend to trudge through interface builder in order to avoid this massive duplication of code, but I’ll give this a try to see if it makes implementing UI in code more bearable.

(Ignore the rest if you have git and github under control)

Re: github — I may be misunderstanding you, but it sounds like you’re going to put this in the same repository along with BBspinner. Might I suggest you create separate repos for the different projects? That way they can be forked and watched separately, etc.

Looking forward to giving this a try!

Looks great to me. I would definitely use this all the time.

@Patrick Regarding Airplay, here’s something I said on the topic earlier:

Some people have been asking about the possibility of using AirPlay in place of a VGA or component cable. Well, the thing is, AirPlay is for streaming. A buffered and compressed video stream is not the same thing as a video game. Even if the iPad were able to compress video in real time, it wouldn’t be able to send it wirelessly without a significant delay. Not a problem when watching a movie, but for a video game it’s a deal breaker. The only way to do this right now is with a cable.
