Two plug in issues - MATRIX with Time and SECONDS

[R0lleston]

We have two issues with plugins

1. MATRIX WITH TIME - slow and jerky display of the matrix green fonts - you can visually see it refreshing from left to right. The MATRIX without time works flawlessly. The Time variant used to work correctly in past builds

2. SECONDS - this has been reported previously - but the seconds skip at times - quite noticeable every 10 seconds - almost as if the plug in is trying to play catch up. I'm using a pi Zero so it could be a processing issue, but im not convinced it is

Thanks for reporting, @R0lleston. Could be related to the transitions, which are by now involved in the rendering of the current time...

rpi_wordclock/wordclock_tools/wordclock_display.py

Line 349 in ee7f254

animation = None if self.fps == 0 else animation

... I'll try to reproduce that on my clock.

Hi Bernd, can you give this one priority?
I especially miss that I cannot show off with the Matrix with time plugin ;-)
Thanks in advance,
Frank.
