Hi folks,

Since the clocks changed last week the time on my F5s has been about 5-7 minutes slow, its not the sleep bug as the box is either on or its off at the wall, is there any fix for this or am I looking at a factory wipe ?

Cheers !!

I've also noticed this issue. I don't think there's anything you can do mate. I think it's possibly an issue with the internet/epg time server. if you change the epg and time setting to "satellite" then the time corrects itself but you lose the epg facility. As soon as you alter the setting back to "internet" then the time loss issue reappears.

Hopefully the next time XMLTV needs an update it corrects itself

does this affect ie a one hour programme timer, i always add a bit at the end, should i be adding 5 mins at the beginning?.

The clock on the box is running slow, so you need to start the timer recording early to catch the beginning.
