Synchronise picture frame clock with web time server
Hi, I've noticed that the clock in the picture frame slowly drifts over time, this results in the time that my frame switches on and off gradually shifting. As the frame already has access to the internet, could you please consider adding a feature where the frame re-synchronises the clock (perhaps via an NTP server) possibly once a day? This would prevent any drift and keep the clock super accurate. You could even get the clock to auto adjust for daylight savings time.
Hello,
New frames 10.4 & 15 inch sold after Nov. 1st, 2014 support now date and time auto sync with network.

Synchronization would also solve the change to daylight savings time issue (the frame did not change for DST)

I highly recommend the addition of NTP or at least remote time change/update.
The frame I gave my 94 yr. old mother has gone off by 15 min in just two mo.
I have it set to turn on and off by the clock, but it is no longer on time.
I don't expect her to learn how to make changes.
She loves this frame as I keep it linked to my flicker account. -
It's inside the frame in the change settings menu. Pix-Star Team.

I wondered why the time had changed and went on line to reset, but can't find where to reset the clock to correct time?

I second this. In fact I was quite surprised I had to manually input the date/time when first setting it up.. I wasnt expecting this on an internet enabled device.

Same here, I'd like to see a NTP client included. The recipient of the device will be confused and frustrated if they can't trust the displayed time. Yes, its a free included feature but at 80+ years old they can't handle deciding which clock in the house to trust.
