HTML5 Time wrong

A Clock Zone placed into a presentation displays the correct time. But a javascript clock in an HTML5 page displayed in the same presentation displays the wrong time by 5 hours ahead. Try this: find any javascript or html5 clock on the web. View that page on any web browser on any computer. Add the same page to a BrightSign HTML5 object in a presentation and publish it to a BrightSign.

Here are a few I tried:

http://randomibis.com/coolclock/
http://jsbin.com/hvishnu999/1
http://www.radoslavdimov.com/jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-digiclock/

 

Is something wrong with the BrightSign's javascript engine?

  This is a known bug. The development team is working on the fix.

  There is any update in this issue. I wanna try to put a date in two lines, with different sizes.

  The time should appear correctly in the 6.x firmware (currently in public beta)

  Hi, what is the status on this? We got the same issue: HTML5 page with JavaScript time that is 2 hours off. Sometimes the player displays it correctly but then somehow reverts back to the wrong time. We're using XD1032 players running firmware 6.1.76. Cheers.
