Cheers for this Reab4.
The clock can display across 4 lines as well as two lines, for anyone who has an LCD and wants to use this feature:
if your display is an KS0073 you can alter the default address for the display lines by adding a file 'AdvancedSettings.xml' in the
XBMC 'UserData\' directory and define some of the lcd properties:
AdvancedSettings.xml:
<lcd>
<rows>4</rows> # Number of rows to use for the LCD.
<columns>20</columns> # Number of columns to use for the LCD.
<address1>0</address1> # Memory address for row 1.
<address2>20</address2> # Memory address for row 2.
<address3>64</address3> # Memory address for row 3.
<address4>84</address4> # Memory address for row 4.
</lcd>
I found that without that lines 2 & 3 were swapped.
You can use the following $INFO[ ] labels to define the clock:
LCD.Time21 and LCD.Time22 for small 1x2 sized chars
<screensaver>
<line>$INFO[LCD.Time21]</line>
<line>$INFO[LCD.Time22]</line>
<line>$INFO[System.CurrentWindow]</line>
<line>Freemem: $INFO[System.FreeMemory]</line>
</screensaver>
LCD.TimeWide21 and LCD.TimeWide22 for medium 2x2 chars
<screensaver>
<line>$INFO[System.CurrentWindow]</line>
<line>$INFO[LCD.TimeWide21]</line>
<line>$INFO[LCD.TimeWide22]</line>
<line>Freemem: $INFO[System.FreeMemory]</line>
</screensaver>
LCD.Time41, LCD.Time42, LCD.Time43 and LCD.Time44 for large 3x4 chars
<screensaver>
<line>$INFO[LCD.Time41]</line>
<line>$INFO[LCD.Time42]</line>
<line>$INFO[LCD.Time43]</line>
<line>$INFO[LCD.Time44]</line>
