UPDATE: I have yet to test this, but it looks like I have fallen for <a href="https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=26937"26937 as Corion suggested.

UPDATE: I found http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/TIMPOTTER/Net-Pcap-0.04/Pcap.xs
But I need help going through it

Hello all,

I have a problem with Net::Pcap and i'm not sure of the source of the problem.
Here is the root of the problem; 

INV 1396377544.853700 should be 1396377544.085370000

From tcpdump on same system:  1396377544.085370 IP 192.168.0.1.sip > 1
+92.168.0.2.sip: SIP, length: 1391

my code is; 

...
 Net::Pcap::loop( $pcap, -1, \&pkt_proc, "$filename" );
...
 my $tv_usec = $hdr->{'tv_usec'};
...

[download]

It looks like the timeval structure is in perl CORE, but I really have not been able to trace it that back to a perl lib or a c lib pcap.h/libcap seem to work fine. The I need help identifying the problem as I have been unable to.

thanks!!!!!!
