I am getting some data on mountable media, and the device which writes

ISO-9660 filesystem, the date and time seem to all jump an hour during
daylight time. Is there a better way to get the time correct than to run
a separate system which doesn't use daylight savings?

I have tried exporting TZ=EST5 (or EST or UTC-5 or GMT-5) to the mount
command or the rsync command, that doesn't seem to help anything, I need
the incoming data treated as EST, while the machine is at EST5EDT.

Something I found on a quick google search:

which leads to:

Perhaps helpful?

Perhaps. I have to play with it a bit to see what it does in practice before I fully trust it to work, but the information is useful in any case.
