I cannot recall that any problem related to that has been reported from the *ChessBase* versions of the Tigers 14/2.0 (also not using too less time AFAIK), but I'm not sure... I guess, in this case the GUI handles that i.e. by sending a value for the total remaining time to the engine, no matter which type of time control or something like that (?). Can you confirm?
