and it is still haunting us today... -.-

issue phenotype:

 'metaData': {'createTime':  1468224591.647322,
              'deliverTime': 1469620743.624606,
              'receiveTime': 1469620743.624573,
              'sendTime':    1469620743.44114,

references:

point where the create time is set: https://code.cor-lab.de/projects/rsb-gstreamer/repository/revisions/master/entry/src/gst_rsb_video_sink.cpp#L318

point of conversion: https://code.cor-lab.de/projects/rsb-gstreamer/repository/revisions/master/entry/src/util.h#L52

#2 Updated by N. Köster over 7 years ago

actual line with issue:

https://code.cor-lab.de/projects/rsb-gstreamer/repository/revisions/master/entry/src/gst_rsb_sink_base.cpp#L241

"quickfix" is to do

event->mutableMetaData().setCreateTime((boost::uint64_t)0);

which will use the current timestamp. however this might be wrong for someone who needs an exact timestamp of an image...
