@mmcghee after u define the location you have to set it active, right?

Hi Sam,

Please see below from rasp config.

Current default time zone: ‘Europe/London’
Local time is now: Sat Aug 1 21:20:01 BST 2020.
Universal Time is now: Sat Aug 1 20:20:01 UTC 2020.

However time on Magic Mirror is showing 22:20

Thanks
Michael

@mmcghee when u open the time, does it display the right timezone under the location? (the little house means that is the current time location set)

if you edit the location, does it display the right values for timezone

Hi Sam,

not sure, since i am using the magicmirror OS i dont have a desktop interface to check it with. However whenever i change the timezones in config to any region it does not update the Mirror at all.

@mmcghee oh, magicmirrorOS… so that means the docker container date/time.

thanks sam,

Think i might move away from magicmirror os seems a bit to complicated compared to running it on raspbian for a newbie like me.

Cheers
