Hello everybody, I, as many others obviously, have time-synching problems with my Squeezebox Touch. It runs a local Media Server and takes its music from a USB stick, this setup is fairly recent. Now I've noticed that the time displayed is off by a couple of minutes, and research took me to this forum.
I read, among others, these threads: https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?79894-My-Touch-is-loosing-time/ https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?85339-Wrong-time-showing-on-Touch/ Also this: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Logitech_Media_Server_CLI and this https://github.com/elParaguayo/LMS-CLI-Documentation/blob/master/LMS-CLI.md I guess I understand now why the time "slip" happens and I read a lot about using SSH to change the time or even writing a cron job to fix it, which is what I'd like to try, too: https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?85339-Wrong-time-showing-on-Touch&p=608399&viewfull=1#post608399 I don't have any security enabled on the SBT, so I use telnet to connect to it; SSH wouldn't connect. I can verify that it works by typing stuff like "info total songs ?" and getting a reply. But when I e. g. try using the date command like date -s "2018-05-23 19:52:00" I just get the usual "echoed" reply and the time displayed won't change. The same happened when I tried to type the commands linked above to create the cron job. What puzzles me is how I'm supposed to work without getting feedback from the console about what actually happens, and the comment about using vi threw me off - I don't even have a command prompt. I also didn't see any vi editor (which I would know how to use), and I couldn't tell whether my file was created or not. Is stuff different when I use SSH (wiki says "no")? Is there a better way than to use telnet/PuTTY? I'm afraid I need a walkthrough here. :( ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TheCoyote's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=68172 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109079 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
