Release Day selection is off by one

Hi,
I wanted to add the release date for https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/155908-kr-l-drozdia-brada/edit?active_nav_item=release_information However, i it always one day off. When I enter 1984-12-24 (which is the true date) it will become 1984-12-23. When I enter 1984-12-25 it will be stored as the true date 1984-12-24.

Very strange. I'll have to look into this a bit more as I can't reproduce it myself. Must have something to do with different regions and the data input.
Thanks for letting me know.

Hey guys,
So, I pushed one small change that may or may not have anything to do with this problem. As I stated earlier, I've never been able to reproduce this myself, I've added and edited hundreds of release dates both here on production and locally on development and it has never once acted this way. Soooo… give it a go now, it may still do it but I need you guys to tell me.
Last thing, if it is still doing it, can you let me know the following information:
Thanks!

So, here is the detailed information: Between it is 23:28 and 23:35 GMT+1 on Feb 15th 2013. I set the release date for Germany of the movie https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/167934-caligola to 1979-04-26. However, the date is stored as 1979-04-25. I did it with Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. I used both browsers from to different OS (Win7-64bit and Opensuse 12.1). All my browsers and my OSes as well as the preferred language for my themoviedb-account are set to German.

Hi all,
I have same problem. Always one day less. No difference if I add a release date or if I want do modify an existing one. I tried it on Windows7+8 with:
Chrome 26.0.x IE9 + 10 Firefox up to 19.x
with country setting EN(US) or DE.
I would be great when this can be fixed.
Greetings

Same problem for me. I have updated "le majordome (2013)" some minutes ago. With safari on an iPad 2, 19:00 CET. I will modify the date, to store the right one in the database.

I believe this is an issue with the JS components we're using. There's a big update coming down in ~2 weeks and I have updated the components to their newest versions. I am hoping this will fix it. We'll have to wait and see.

Thank you!

Yes, the updates were pushed out this week. Before I mark this issue as closed, can one more person verify this for me?
Happy to hear that it should be fixed.

The bug is still there for me. The only difference is that it looks to be fixed at first. But when I hit Release Information the site reloads and the date changes back by one.
However, I'm so used to this so I always enter the date one day ahead. Not a big deal.
