When I run os.date("%c") on my psp the time is wrong.
It should give me 14:44 but I get 22:14.

What am I doing wrong? the lua player on windows displays the correct time.

if i had to make a guess, i'd say it was timezone related..

I am having the exact same problem. I think the Lua Player is making an error with timezones. I am on EST (-5) and it randomly gives me either EST, which is what I want, or GMT(0), which is the time before the timezone is taken into account.

Why does 12:00 = 0:00 and will this be fixed in a future version of Lua?

Ver 0.11 fixed it alright but I think Daylight Saving Time is not applied. My timezone here is GMT-8. PSP itself shows correct time with Daylight Saving.

Yes, 12:00 pm = 0:00 is what I ment, but I now see how it is set up after looking at the two links you provided. Thx

I was able to get the time and date feature formatted the way I like. :)
However I did have one question about it: %p shows the Prefix "AM" and "PM", and %P is supose to show the prefix "am" and "pm", but %P dont show anything.
Is there something else I can use to get it to show "am" and "pm"?

Has this bug been re-introduce recently? When I do a os.date("*t"), the hour doesn't seem to take my timezone into consideration. i.e. I get the GMT time rather than the time of my local timezone. I also tried os.date("!*t") as well, they both return the same result.

Same thing over here. The clock program is 12 hours ahead

There is still a problem with the timezone, see http://wiki.ps2dev.org/psp:lua_player:todos . Would be nice, if always the time would be used, which you can see in the normal PSP menu, but I don't know how to do it.
