Time sync offset?

[Matt Ion]

I'm wondering if there's any way in Windows XP Pro to apply an "offset"
to the time sync? Specifically, I want my computer clock to sync to a
timeserver regularly, but I need it to be about 30s ahead of the actual
sync time. The scheduled recordings on my PVR software are consistantly
missing the first 15-30 seconds of a show because the TV networks
apparently don't sync to the same timeserver.

TIA

Suggest you look up the definition of synchronization (Sync) and what
it means. If you add an "offset" it is no longer synchronized! Try a
Google search, who knows, someone may have a 3rd party app that
will do that.

Thanks, I know what 'synchonization' means.

"Offset" is not "unsynchnonized". I don't want the time wandering off
on its own; I want it locked to a timeserver, just not exactly the same.

Try a Google search, who knows, someone may have a 3rd party app that
will do that.

Done lots of google searches. And MS Support searches. I get thousands
of hit, the only ones which I've chugged through so far are related at
all only refer to the maximum offset permissible when sync occurs.

That's why I'm asking here, hoping that someone might actually have an
intelligent answer.

So far, nobody seems to.
