Time Difference

Hi

I am living in Egypt and have a Lenova laptop.

I watch UK TV with FilmOn.

But the time on the TV schedule is way out.

I also play Fantasy Football.

On Friday 8 August it says Crystal Palace play Arsenal at 12 midday, when it is 2000.

Next day Fulham play Liverpool at 1230.  It says 0430 etc.

Does anyone know how I can correct the time?

Thanks

    It worked debitcard.

    I changed the time zone to Cairo.

    Now says Crystal Palace - Liverpool at 2100.

    Thank you.

    This sounds similar to an annoying issue I get with Google calendar where email reminders are 8 hours late. 

    I've put this down to the time setting used bring that on the West Coast of the USA. I haven't been able to sort it out but the pop up reminders are on time so I'm not bothered. 

    Filmon is a US company so you may need to look at the settings in their app.

    Just looked on FlimOn.

    The times are now UK time, but I can just add on another hour for here.

    Before it was way out. 

    Thanks
