[App] Get/Set Current Time From TV C/D/E

[sectroyer]

I know but look carefully at second instance of -U, when localtime file exists it is no longer UTC but UTC+1, -U should always return UTC, no?

No It just shows data without adding timezone offset. When you put localtime file the system adds the offset Besides look few posts earlier. We are working on a new (safer) way of setting time which will always show correct time for your time zone

Ok
Anyway, even if "wrong" values are shown, good ones are still set using -s / -u

Code: Select all

./getsetcurrenttimefromtv -n exeDSP -u
Current Time: 1393869864
Current TimeZone Number: 9
Current TimeZone Offset: 60
The current date/time is: Mon Mar  3 19:04:24 2014
Current Time+Offset: 1393873464
The current date/time+offset is: Mon Mar  3 20:04:24 2014
Succesfully set current time.

Code: Select all

date -u
Mon Mar  3 18:04:38 UTC 2014

Code: Select all

date
Mon Mar  3 19:04:30 CET 2014

Just a matter of offset

[sectroyer]

You run:

Code: Select all

./getsetcurrenttimefromtv -n exeDSP -u

Running with -u or -s shows information that are used for debug purposes only. If you want to see "good" time use either -U or -D. Besides this line:

Code: Select all

The current date/time is: Mon Mar  3 19:04:24 2014

Shows correct time for your timezone

[zoelechat]

Understood and no complaint about nothing
Just noticing that if localtime file exists, values shown by -D -U are offset by localtime

I have saved it in :

I tried to use it with ntpclient active and it works but if ntpclient is disabled, after TV reboot I get the above errors.

Can you help in debugging ?

[sectroyer]

Without ntp do you have correct time and date on your tv? Not the samygo:)

[miazza]

Without NTP the data and time on TV is set wrong to 1970.
If I run ntpclient than it is correct but I do not like ntpclient for other issues on Smarthub on my TV.

with ntpclient active:

Code: Select all

VDLinux#> ./getsetcurrenttimefromtv -n exeDSP -u
Current Time: 1394812861
Current TimeZone Number: 9
Current TimeZone Offset: 60
The current date/time is: Fri Mar 14 16:01:01 2014
Current Time+Offset: 1394816461
The current date/time+offset is: Fri Mar 14 17:01:01 2014
Succesfully set current time.

Stop telling lies I am not asking about the time on samygo, ssh, telnet, http, ftp, etc. I want to know whether (without running any tools) time on your TV (use the remote ) is correct? Also what tv model are you using?

[miazza]

OK Sorry. If I press the info button on the remote the time is correct in the info bar.

My TV is 46ES8000.

In summary:

No root (no samygo): Time on info-bar is correct
root (samygo) non ntpclient: Time is correct in info-bar but time is wrong in the system
root (samygo + ntpclient: Time is correct in info-bar and in the system

I hope this clarify my situation.

PS: every time I switch off the TV, the bin getsetcurrenttimefromtv is set to dimension 0 and I need to ftp it again in order to try using it.

[sectroyer]

Yeah. You use the app for Setting the time but (without ntp) does it display correct time?
