TP time
ADVERTS 1
The azbox has a selection of TP for setting the time. I selected this setting and nothing happened. How should this work? I checked back after 24 hours - zip.

Only some transponders send the time data. Most do not though.
Its just easier to pull the time off the internet.

I do enough of that stuff to pay the bills. Bummer.

You can also set it by hand.

Yeah, that's what I've been doing. Seems like the azbox needs a reboot every now and then. Originally Posted by Scott Greczkowski You can also set it by hand.
I've found out that if the time is not set correctly, recording is problematic beyond the obvious. For instance, you set the clock a couple minutes off, a reserved recording will not finish - display looks like it has - and the box is sort of locked up.
It will respond to the remote, you just can't see what's going on on the tv. I have to reboot every time. I've telnet'ed in before rebooting and looked at the files in the recordfile area. It will have a bunch of .idx and a few other files which are orphaned after reboot.
Also, if you set the time manually, use the 24 hour format i.e. 13:29 vs 1:29 pm.
If you set the hour and minute and then go back and set am or pm, it screws up.
