android player 4.04 ugoos X4Q

hello,
If I turn the Android box off and on again, the Android hardware time and the Xibo player clock widget time start the same. However, as time goes on, the Xibo player clock widget time slows down and the time difference with the Android box increases. The Android box hardware time keeps in sync with NTP. Other Android boxes using the same CMS have the correct time. Please find the attached screenshots and logs.

Top on left is base layout clock. and Right is overlay layout clock.
There is no offset in clock widget.

Hi, overlay layouts are different to ‘normal’ layouts in the fact they will render media content once and will not show any refreshed content, hence why your clock seems to be slowing down. You could try adding your clock and a second media item to a Playlist to have in your overlay which would then reload each item as it switches between the two.
