Stellarium 0.10.5 on Windows XP.
Local timezone = UTC+2 +1(summer)
A few applications do show both UTC and local time correctly, but seems Stellarium is exactly 1 hour ahead.
For example, now it is 22:24 local, 19:24 UTC

If timezone is set to system_default then Stellariim shows the sky for 23:24 local.

The only valid solution was found after a few attempts of setting timezone in config.ini:
time_zone = UTC-4

Of course, Latitude and Longitude are set to my location (Kyyiv, Ukraine, 50N 30E)

P.S. I.m a programmer, but not downloaded sources yet. Please lt me know if you need a portion of code for obtaining UTC time from Windows or any other kind of help.

Anyway, thanks a lot for such a great piece of software!
