Please describe your bug

I never noticed this til now but all my nfo are off by 1 day earlier than what is posted at thetvdb or themoviedb. I am on 10.7.7. My TZ environment variable is set to America/New_York.
I can confirm log times show correct EST timezone so I know that my TZ config is correct.

Here is an example of the NFO that Jellyfin generates and thetvdb webpage in for background showing the date mismatch.

Here is an example of a movie having the same behavior:

I came across GitHub fix (https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-web/pull/3230) and decided to run a test on latest nightly release but it doesn't seem to fix the underlying issue of the NFO creation having the incorrect airdate field off by 1 day. The web client does show correct airdate but the NFO is incorrect.
