This is a hard bug to describe.
I make smart playlists of podcasts based on their "Date" fields. One per month. So "November 2020 podcasts", for example. Uses the 'advanced' smart-playlist option, to set 'date between' 1/11/2020 and 1/12/2020, for example (with european date format).
Once a year I run into the exact same bug. If I make a playlist for October, and only for October (so, all podcasts dated between 1/10/YYYY and 1/11/YYYY), it doesn't find anything. October dated podcasts always get identified as being in Novermber's date range rather than October's. It includes all October dated podcasts in the range 1/11/YYYY to 1/12/YYYY. So I end up making an "October-November YYYY podcasts" playlist. Happens every year.
It's not a particularly important problem, but it's just really odd. Why does the smart-playlist logic go wrong only for October?
