I gave an example. And yes, you need someone with programmer skills to make these changes.
As you have discovered, you can't change it in the skin.

If I find someone with programmer skills to make changes to ClockToText.pyo, is this permitted by the rules? I guess Openpli is opensource. By the way .pyo files need special software to be open and than be converted again to .pyo. Almost all files in: usr/lib/enigma2/python are .pyo files.

You need to find the latest PLi source of ClockToText.pyo (it's called ClockToText.py) on Github.
Edit it using notepad++ and then put it in the same directory as ClockToText.pyo
Rename ClockToText.pyo to ClockToText.pyo.orig, and reboot the gui. ClockToText.py will be re-compiled and ClockToText.pyo will be created if there are no errors.
If it fails to compile you can put the original back in place.
Maybe not quite as simple as that if the errors cause, say, a boot-loop.

Nothing on "github.com" search results:
We couldn’t find any repositories matching 'org:github ClockToText.py'You could search all of GitHub or try an advanced search.

It installs the source code on the box, so you have the "py" files there. This is needed if you want to test code changes (don't forget to restart enigma if you change code, as code is cached).

After editing numerous “pyo” files in “usr/lib/enigma2/python” :
The first page of Multi EPG shows correct am/pm time.
My modified Skin generates the correct am/pm time too.
The rest remains in 24h format like “Add Timer and single EPG. This is due to missing EPG configuration files in Openpli; Vix have them, (correct me if I am wrong). The developers of Openpli can create them if there is a demand, it’s always good to have a choice. We have to wait.
And if you play with your satellite receiver, always make a full backup, very important. I have backups with the original 24h format and with the modifications I made.
Thanks to all of you that tried to help me.
