The general idea for the new hourly entry times is to distribute visitors to avoid congestion mainly in the early morning. There's no intention to rigidly adhere to entering at the exact time of your ticket. You can enter anytime after the hour stamped on your ticket. But you cannot enter even 1 minute earlier than the time on your ticket. You can enter any time after the time of your ticket up to 12N for morning tickets. And use your tickets for entry after 12 noon, no later than 3PM.
Some websites are saying that the tickets are only good for one hour inside the ruins. That is simply not true. The hourly entry affects the time you enter not how long you stay. A normal guided tour can be 2-3 hours. Once you exit, you cannot re-enter.
