Hi forum,
Having searched and search I seem to find all the answers for keeping your system time in sync with NTP (as that's what it does
)
BUT here's a random question - How can I keep in sync with a ntp server but then offset that time by a constant value such as say 1 minute ahead.
Yes, that's odd - but essentially I have a system that's powering a audio stream that has an almost constant 1 minute buffer.
So, I'm trying to find a way that I can accommodate this buffer time in the system time so that audio you hear is then closer to the real world time.
I know I could set time / date with "date" - but that involves losing the benefit of keeping the clock in some sort of "sync".
Not sure if this is possible in anyway? I looked at timezones but that obviously only helps with large jumps in time where as all I'd like to achieve is a system time 1 minute faster than ntp time it gets?
Not sure if there's any magical ntp.conf setting I've missed?
There was the thought to only use GetTime.sh and add a delay in time form when that script gets the value and then actually sets the value on the system?
But thought best I see if anyone has ever needed this type of strange time setup before
Many Thanks.
