[BPM] 24 hour clock

Is there any cosmic way to get the Big Picture Mode clock on 24 hour mode?

Thanks

Really?
There's no way to get this world wide service to display a simple 24 hour clock?!?

I think it's 24h for me? Does your PC use 24h?
What OS are you on?

set your pc to the 24 hour clock in the date/time settings.

just checked mine and it's in 24 hour clock time.

So... I do appretiate your help (really) but you guys really think I want 24 hour clock on Steam but don't use it already on the system (every single BIOS I've seen so far was 24 hour clock already - maybe because of the region they're sold on, I don't know)?
There is no option to get 24 hour clock. I can change the system (Steam system) language to whatever I want but not the clock (Kodi is great on that, btw).

So you are on SteamOS? Ask here then: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamuniverse/discussions/1/

EDIT: Quick search on the forums: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamuniverse/discussions/1/458605613405647128/

im in the US so the region thing has nothing to do with it.

Here's the clock, btw. It's midnight here, not 12 am (taht's how we talk in my country and many other countries).

Are you on SteamOS or not? If not, then what?

joaojotta Jun 18, 2017 @ 4:52pm

I'm using Steam but not on Steam OS.
Thanks for the links but I can't seem to have the file to edit... that's od.

Forcen Jun 18, 2017 @ 4:53pm

What OS are you using? Windows? Which one? Mac?

EDIT: Don't use the fix for SteamOS if you're not on SteamOS.

Dude, nevermind. You saved me!!!

I'm on Linux (Arch). The file maybe "steamos" on SteamOS but on other systems, because you install the application, it's actually "steam-runtime".

Now, I couldn't find the string mentioned in you link (the second one) but apparently I'm getting smart (I'm sure I'm getting dumber by the minute but, please, humour me) and I had the following, under the existing "export" command:

export LC_TIME=en_DK.utf-8

It works!!!

Forcen, you'te the man!!!

Great!

Just curious, did your OS display time in 24h but steam didn't?

Yes indeed.
I distrohopp a lot and Steam BPM has never displayed a 24 hour clock. NEVER!!!
I'm talking about years, now.
(can't quite remember how it behaves on Windows but I'll check it out in a sec - brrrrrrr)
