Status Line on Printer Display show wrong ETE and ETA time format

Hi everyone!

My printer use Marlin firmaware and it support the status line on Display ( RepRap Full graphics). I'm chose the "Rotate" option in "General > Connection" settings "Show status line on the Printer LCD" from the Repetier Server Web GUI, so I can view all the information available on the printer display, but the lines in time format: ETA and ETE, come only with 2 chars, eg: ETA 11 (instead of 11:30) or ETE 00 (instead of 00:30). I can confirm instead, that the "layers" info message is correct (eg.: layer 3/33). I check into the Marlin source code (Arduino Mega) and I haven't found anything that can prevent it or help me to set the format of the status line.

Can anyone help me to solve?

Thanks in advance.

    Is this an old Marlin firmware? In Past marlin did split commands with : preventing 11:30 - command was only until : in this case. Sound like this is the problem here. Might even lead to communication errors when checksum is included over complete line or misinterpretation of part after : as new command. In that case select only layers to prevent error when you see them in consore for that reason.

    Ok. The firmware is Marlin 1.0.2... so I can't solve without update de firmware. Thanks for the response.

    UPDATE: I'm solved editing the marlin_main.cpp file, at "get_command()" routine... removing the line containing ':'
