      I have the MMM-Wallpaper module installed and have it set to change the image every hour.
      This works as expected.

      What is unexpected is that find over the course of a week, the time at which the image slowly drifts out to 5 minutes or so until restart the host, which I usually do 1 min before the hour.
      Resetting at this time results in the host coming back up on the hour, give or take a few seconds, and display the first image.

      Any ideas on what I can do to rectify this time drift or is there something built into the module itself that causes this drift?

      Thanks

        @DarrenO-0 I haven’t looked at the module code , but most load the image (delay), then start a timer for the next, then load (delay)… so the delay accumulates.

        without rewriting the module, you cannot fix this

          @sdetweil Thank you. That’s sense, I guess.
