I did some additional testing today and discovered that it appears the Lcd4Linux plugin is causing a conflict.  If I remove the plugin and reboot is shows the correct date.

I installed the 7.3-20201026 firmware in slot 1 without backup and the date was correct. 

I then reinstalled 7.3-20201026 in slot 1 with backup from slot 2, my original 7.3-20201026 image.  The problem followed the reinstall with backup.

I also have a problem with no front panel display. 

It displays boot on startup and then remains blank for all operations.

I have had this with all of the openpli releases I have tried. 

This is the reason I installed theLcd4Linux plugin initially.

I removed the Lcd4Linux plugin to see if it changed the front panel problem and that is when I found that it was causing the date issue.

To confirm this I removed Lcd4Linux on the slot 2 image also and after reboot it also shows the correct firmware release date.

Maybe this will help someone else if they are having this problem.

Any suggestions for the front panel display problem?

The firmware version is Openpli-7.3-release-osmio4kplus-20201026_multiboot.

I noticed this problem several weeks ago with earlier versions but this is the first time I have tried to report an issue.

Steps to recreate it were:

1.  Updated firmware from the menu. Menu -> Setup-> Flash Image-> 7.3-release.

2. Loaded in slot 2 over Openpli-7.3-release-osmio4kplus-20201019_multiboot (with backup).

3. Firmware downloaded, installed, rebooted, and went through the settings backup with no issues.

4. Checked standby / restart -> Multiboot image selector and noticed the wrong date on slot 2.

5. Checked Menu -> Information  -> About and verified the image there showed the correct build and update date.

6. Rebooted the system again and verified the problem did not go away after a reboot.
