On my PC (Windows XP + SP2 + all updates) I use a 24 -
hours time format. Since I have version 1.0.615 the
scheduler is set on 7.00 AM. My former scheduling was 7.00
PM ( 19.00 Uhr german). Is there any hope, that a new
comming version has a 24 hors time format again?
 
By Bill Sanderson:

I've dug into this bug, as follows:

Users in locales where the default clock is a 24 hour format will find that
they cannot set scheduled scan times in the afternoon.

This can be worked around by selecting a time format which uses 12 hour
format rather than 24 hour.

This is on the Time tab, and a working format is: h:mm:ss tt

A non-working format is: any of the choices with a CAPITAL H at the
beginning.

This isn't my discovery, it was posted by others here, but I've done some
testing:

1) I set my language to English (United Kingdom) afternoon settings failed
(default time is 24 hour.) Reset time to 12 hour,and afternoon settings
worked.

2) I set my language to English (United States) Default time setting is 12
hour. Scheduling scans in the afternoon works fine. Change just the time
settings to a 24 hour choice, and you can no longer set up a scheduled
scanin the afternoon.

This bug appears to me to be new in build 614.

I am experiencing the same problem and cannot get it to
even change to a PM setting. This means I cannot use the
Schedular at all.
Could we please have an option for AM and PM or 24 hour
time recognition.
Thanks.
 
Reset to a 12 hour time format, or a language locale which has this as the
default (US English, for example)

Then set your schedule as you wish it to be.

Then reset to a 24 hour format, or your usual locale.

The schedule will appear wrong (AM)--but should work at the expected time,
as I understand the current situation.

Thank you. It works fine as you wrote. I changed to 12
hours format, set the scheduler on 6.00 PM. Than I reset
to 24 hours format and the scheduler shows both, 18.00 AND
6.00 PM. The scan starts at the right time. Fine tip,
thank you!
