Ok using nab12 and time zone set @ Greenwich

Now for some reson my dm is saying it's 16;46 when it 18:46.
Tried reboot and starting Enigma2 again. Still the same.
EPG is also saying prog are on that finished 2 hours ago.

Anyone explain why? How to get it back to normal
without reloading a new image. Got loaded set to record as im
away for rest of the week, just worried noting will record properly.

Thanks

This is a bug, i had one of these a year ago, but it was 10 minutes !
Solution was to re install from scratch.
If you change time zone (put gmt +2), nothing change ?

I also have this time error prolem.
DM8000 black hole firm ware.
Have tried telnetting correct time which works but after a short while the box is back to 10 minutes slow again.
I assume it is deriving time from the transponder data and interpreting wrongly.
I have tried reflashing firmware from scratch and still same problem.
Im told it synchronises time on first reboot after loading firmware so I made sure it was looking at BBC1 just to be sure but the problem is still there.

Its driving me nuts !!!!!

Someone told me there was a sub menu to change not only time zone but also to adjust +/- minutes but I cant find the menu option - any ideas ?

There is a plugin for time shift but that appears to be for recording purposes not time synch.

Help please ????

Black Hole was a fantastic Image, But to Old Now !

Try a recent image with latest drivers

This is what I had to do with my DM800 put it on a UK channel, then reboot it should then come back with GMT, hope this helps...

I tried absolutely everything, telnetting time, reinstalled firmware, rebooted on british tv station, but the box steadfastly refused to reset the 10 minutes time error - until (this is true) a mouse got into the main fusebox and tripped the mains electricity ! On reboot BINGO time sorted. Im mystified since i tried a hard rest and just plain pulled out the plug in desparation too and still had the problem. Viva mouse power :-):respect-059::respect-059:
