I am trying to disable the transponder time.

I add the following to /etc/enigma2/settings

config.misc.useTransponderTime=false

The problem is, everytime i restart the system, the setting goes away. I assume another program is copying a template file into place. I'm running the latest DREAMELITE.

Where is the master file located, or what can i do to make sure i can keep the transponder time DISABLED!!!!

Well, I might have done it the hard way, but i found the .py enigma2 python files in the standby.py file that reads the config.misc.useTransponderTime value and i forced it a set value so that it was always FALSE.

That fixed that problem.

I then created a boot script that issues the rdate command to fetch the time from an NTP server.

This should hopefully solve THIS problem.

Before modify /etc/enigma2/settings you must kill enigma2. Then you can modify settings. Then restart.

systemctl start enigma2
