To people that own this unit: Does it have a clock that shows time when the unit if off? Like the old school VCR's?

No, it does not. When the unit is on and a disk is playing, you will see the current playback position, but when the unit is off there is no display.

Hi skyler, yes this does come with a clock. Time will show on the display section of the unit. - Ella

Yes, there is a digital clock, and no the unit does not have to be on to see it....The display is VERY bright, which makes a good nightlight, but if you are putting this in a bedroom, you might want to find a way to cover the display when trying to sleep. This is a great system! The speakers are not mounted to the unit and could be hung on the wall if you put brackets on the back of the speakers.

Hi: No. When the unit is off, it is completely dark. Since the original unit in the car (18 years okay), had no backlight to the clock, got use too it and just put in a small travel clock that avails the time day or night.

Doesn't show remaining time. Turns on for original time, then turns off. As simple as it gets.

I bought mine in August 2011 and my clock would hold the correct time for a few days, maybe a week, but then it would be off anywhere from 1 1/2 hours to 24 hours. I called Toshiba customer support, he led me through the "fix" and now it works perfect. The solution was very simple - I needed to turn off the "auto" setting. Other than the clock issue, mine has been excellent and does everything it's supposed to do. I would also recommend it - it's much easier to use than my Panasonic which does basically the same things this one does.

Okay guys I got the player yesterday and had the same problem so I did some massive googling for 2 hours and found the solution: Press Display, and then use the Up and Down arrows to scroll through the different display options. When you see the timestamp go off, just let it sit there for like 4 seconds and the display will go off. I had to do this once for divx videos, and once for dvd videos and have not had a problem since.

Camera comes with instruction book and in initial set up there is a time/date function to program in. The CD is VERY DETAILED. On p.53 in the Playback Section, there is a Note that says "You can use (symbols shown) [Display Date/Time] setting to choose whether to display the recording date when you play back videos." So, yes, there is a time/date function and you have the option to display it or not. That's all I found in the instruction materials supplied with the camcorder.

I don't see that it shows the time. However, the display times out and the display size is tiny, so it would be difficult to use even it does display time.

No, I never tried to sync the time. But I thought it was a function of the camera to request a time. My time is all in the DVR. My cameras only supply the picture.

Yes, with a certain display mode. I use the display mode that shows the running time of the track and the current time of day. There is another one that shows the name of the currently playing track but not the time of day.... might be third option. Can't remember.

I believe there is a CR2032 battery in the unit that keeps time. Try replacing that.

There is no clock and there is no timer built-in. The LCD display only shows the track, time, folder, name, station number, etc. associated with the music. Hope this helps.

Most of the time I fall asleep watching a movie using the DVD player, so I couldn't tell if it had one. All kidding aside, no it does not have a timer on it. The unit uses so little energy it wouldn't matter if it stayed on for a few days. It is a very good player that is not area code sensitive, it plays ALL cd's and dvd's and that is a rare find in players. Hope this helped you......zzzzzzzzzzzzzz (see what I mean).

The display does not show a clock. You can get the time by hitting a button on the remote.

Yes it does have a clock. Read bob's answer to see how to set it. The DSP button is on the far right of the station select row of buttons, with a 0 above of it.
