First off, love the script. Works very well except.....
I have it set to run every 2 minutes as suggested. But the longer it runs, the more time my system clock loses. This is not a complaint about the script! I have had this problem before to varying degrees but never to this extent. I can notice a 30 second loss of time after only about 10 minutes of running! (On a fresh boot)
If I disable this script I'll lose maybe 2 minutes over the course of a whole day.
I've seen the time loss subject discussed several times on this board on and off but haven't found a resolution other than frequently resetting the clock. I sync it with another machine on the network twice a day.
The other morning the coffee didn't come on at 5:00 am. I checked and it was because my event to syncronize the clock ran at 4:20 am (HomeSeer time) and that set the system clock ahead of the event schedule. My wife considers this a very serious problem!
HomeSeer is running on Windows 98 (original version with all the patches)
On a Pentium Pro 333Mhz with 192 Megs of Ram
Has anyone else seen this problem with this particular script? I suspect the problem is so pronounced because the script runs so frequently.
I'm running 1.5.2 build 28
Any advice out there would be much appreciated!
