Osmio 4K Clock Problem

[Alan Rovner]

Hi all, my Osmio 4K clock keeps going back to Jan 1, 1970. Does this receiver have an internal battery that needs to be replaced? I use NTP to set the correct time but it keeps reverting to 1970. (I was a freshman in high school on Jan 1, 1970....brings back memories...but that's another story.) Anyone else seeing this?

That's a bug in TNAP 3.2. Load the newest 4.0, and you won't happen anymore.

Or, you can try changing the NTP server to: time.google.com

That worked for me.

Where can I download the current firmware? I'm running 3.0 right now....

Ehh, that's iffy, depending on where you lived. Vietnam War, and protesting going on... I was 11 years old and living in Frankenmuth, Michigan. Pretty sheltered there...

Yeah, but you wouldn't be born yet.

70's were a fun time must admit, but the 80's were unbelievable!

If I knew then what I know now I would have made a lot of different choices.

I didn't care for the 70's. But I had a great time in the 80's.

If you would rather use Transponder time I see a few on 103w ku band with the correct time or if using an hauppauge atsc tuner most over the air channels have the correct time.
12079 H 29290 103w
12145 V 20000 103w
You would need to set a channel as startup service.
While on channel selection screen move to the channel and press menu 2nd item down Set as startup service.
If you do that you can uninstall the system time plugin.
I use transponder time myself and works good. I'm not always connected to the internet because my internet is a mobile broadband hotspot.

Not me...now the mid 70's to mid 80's I'd like to relive as I don't remember a lot of what happened -

"time.google.com" isn't working for me. I may have to upgrade TNAP 4.0 to see if it fixes it.

I also set: "Sync NTP every" = 5 minutes, "NTP cold start" = ON, and "Use RTC time from deep standby" = ON

Mine is also hard-wired ethernet directly to my router. Perhaps you should also check in your router admin settings, to make sure your routers time is also set correctly.

So far so good 36+ hours after upgrading to TNAP 4.0 and using your suggested settings.

Using TNAP 4.0, I've never seen the clock with an incorrect time.

 

[ZetaMale]

TNAP 4 seems to be keeping correct time all the time via NTP. Nice improvement.

 

[Babadem]

It seems the TNAP 4.0 "Time Fix" somehow migrated to other Images. No more time error issues on OpenViX too.

I was 17 then.

I have the latest TNAP4 and I'm having time sync problems again. Right now I'm trying north-america.pool.ntp.org (which is what my routers are using and they are perfectly synced).
