Start with last clock settings

Hello,

I like to watch TV with sound played back over my RS520 via HDMI ARC and clock mode activated. However, when I switch of my TV and the RS520, it does not keep the clock setting after switching it on again. Hence, it then always shows the Home screen with the App icons in a row. I would really like to see an option within the settings that enables the RS520 to keep the clock mode for its next start.

Regards,

Thorsten

You can make the clock screen appear when the RS520 enters standby mode.
RS520–>Settings–>Display–>Always on Display–>Activate the ON/OFF button on the upper right of the screen to ON and select the clock you want.

There is no other way to view the clock than by selecting the clock app.

Thanks for your reply. However, I don’t need to know the current time, when the device is in standby mode, because in general I am then not sitting in front of it. Instead, I want to know the current time when watching TV and listening to it’s sound via my RS520. That’s why I would like to see a behavior of the clock that is already known from the VU meter.

You can hide the clock in standby mode.
If you follow the method below, the clock screen will not appear in standby mode and a black screen will appear.
RS520–>Settings–>Display–>Always on display–>Off

As you said, there is no separate function to make the clock screen appear on the RS520 screen when listening to TV sound through RS520.
It is difficult to add such a function in the future.

@ROSEHAN Okay, then I still will have to switch on the clock manually when watching TV. Thanks for your support. My thought was that it could be possible to realise a clock mode similar to the VU meter mode. But I recognized that even the VU meter does not start automatically when switching to HDMI eARC or starting the RS520 with HDMI eARC. This seems to work only for other inputs.

We’ll check that out.

But Vu mode and the clock face display are completely different functions, and the development process itself is also different.
