Date and time in Standby

This question we have had a couple of times on the forum .

You can add a date in the VFD in Standby
If you edit with Linux editor skin.xml from skin you are using.
(/usr/share/enigma2/skin name )
Create a backup if you mess ,FTP skin.xml back...
We can have different formats with seconds and without:

Example:

14:38:42 - April.10

this coding you have to add in the skin.xml

<screen name="StandbySummary" position="0,0" size="132,64">
<widget source="global.CurrentTime" render="Label" position="0,0" size="132,64" font="Regular;30" halign="center" valign="center">
<convert type="ClockToText">Format:%H:%M:%S-%h.%d</convert>
</widget>
</screen>

or this one

14:38 - April.10


<screen name="StandbySummary" position="0,0" size="132,64">
<widget source="global.CurrentTime" render="Label" position="0,0" size="132,64" font="Regular;30" halign="center" valign="center">
<convert type="ClockToText">Format:%H:%M-%h.%d</convert>
</widget>
</screen>

Rgd MX

example: SkinFactory 9 P V1 only skin.xml
You can see that I added at the end of the coding
This coding for date and time and how I added.

I've tested all and it all works without problems.

You must first see if it is standby display coding already within the skin.xml coding
If so just edit but with Linux editor.

You can open my file with Linux editor and paste to skin.xml
in zip file is only coding for standby

This is just to show the time

If you edit with Linux editor skin.xml from skin you are using.
(/usr/share/enigma2/skin name )
Create a backup if you mess ,FTP skin.xml back...

example:
14:12

<screen name="StandbySummary" position="0,0" size="132,64">
<widget source="global.CurrentTime" render="Label" position="0,0" size="132,64" font="Regular;30" halign="center" valign="center">
<convert type="ClockToText">Format:%H:%M</convert>
