    Has anyone else got a problem with the time on a dm800se on mine I have had to install ntpupdate manager otherwise the clock is never the correct time but in standby the time is all over the place gains hours in minutes next time looses hours the only way to do a timer recording is to leave it on all the time.
    Were does the time come from for the display program or tuner?

    I'm guessing its a front processor version 3 clone box?


    You will need to set a cronjob to poll an NTP server every 2 mins to keep the time correct in standby if you want to use timers for recording etc :)
