Server detected a backward timestamp from 1973406 to 0 in file

In my core.log file I'm receiving these error messages;
Server detected a backward timestamp from 1973406 to 0 in file:C:\FMSHOME\applications\livepkgr\streams\_definst_\bbc1
Server detected a backward timestamp from 1973406 to 0 in file:C:\FMSHOME\applications\livepkgr\streams\_definst_\bbc2
Is this an issue caused by the encoder? I'm using a Viewcast Niagara to encode and not the FMLE. These are the only settings I have available.
I'm using all default settings on the FMS 4.5 server. 
Thanks,
Dave

I'm checking again with Viewcast support .I don't see how I can check whether ATC is enabled on the encoder. Since it's a portable contained streaming appliance.
The last response I got from them was.
"Does this happen every time or only when you restart the profile shortly after stopping it? As a rule time codes are always an off set from 0. However, it does not matter what the time code is. It just matters that the server doesn't get an out of sequence time code. So if you stop an encoder and then start it too quickly you can send a time code to the server before the server has completely torn down the previous stream. You should wait several seconds before restarting a stream."

  • (e)2611363      Server detected a backward timestamp

    Hi to all,
    I'm doing an application similar to dailymotion.com to record
    via webcam a video.
    I set a bufferlength to 1000sec (i.e), so when I stop the
    recording I can wait to do out_ns.close until the buffer.length =
    0.
    the problem is that sometimes making test on an adsl
    connection, on my fms test server the stream saved is like freezed
    for seconds, and in the log file core.00.log I have an error like:
    (e)2611363 Server detected a backward timestamp from 38851 to
    38844 in file:
    /usr/local/fms/applications/rec/streams/_definst_/09ad762ff257aba44d4aa735b6eb9fcd_987
    whats the matter?
    anyone could help me on this?
    thanks in advance for your time

    There is a concept of Absolute Time Code which enables the encoders to publish the livestream based on absolute system time rather than starting the messages from timestamp 0 everytime you append to a recording.
    I suspect you encoder is starting everytime from 0 timestamp but since the server already has recording till some time - say x, for the server these are backward timestamps and hence the continous warnings.
    Also to safeguard FMS against such conditions and cause memory crashes, we only allow messages with backward timestamps to accumulate in the process queue upto a limit and then the recording is stopped. Thats why you are observing the errors - 
    "Error from libf4f.dll: Total number of messages waiting to be recorded has exceeded the limit.    - 
    2011-12-28    19:23:38    4020    (e)2611423    Failed to record bbc2011-BBC91 (Unknown Error).    -"
    Try to check your encoder settings for stream synchronization or ATC settings and enable them.

  • Backward timestamp

    I am using simple record, but it is not recording properly,
    playback is showing still video, audio is running, at last moments
    video runs very fast without audio.
    Management console always displays several lines like this
    Server detected a backward timestamp from 60332 to
    60056

    Did you ever get any info on this? I'm running into
    "Backwards Timestamp" errors on every stream I record and I can't
    find any info on it.
    Thanks,

  • I am unable to see any POP3 or IMAP tab when I set up an account in my iphone 4S. Hence by default all my email accounts become IMAP and the messages are deleted from the server when I delete them from the iphone.

    I am unable to see any POP3 or IMAP tab when I set up an account in my iphone 4S. Hence by default all my email accounts become IMAP and the messages are deleted from the server when I delete them from the iphone.

    ok sorry everyone but i solved it myself but the solution is so nuts i've posted it here to help others who have the same problem.
    to setup a comcast imap account on your iphone:
    go to mail, contacts, etc in settings
    under accts, select add account
    select "other"
    new screen, choose "add mail account"
    now on the new acct screen you must enter your name, email address and password for your GMAIL acct ! (yes i said your gmail acct !, or some other acct with a NON comcast address).
    hit next
    then the acct verifies
    when verified a screen will open with all the acct settings for this acct AND @ the top of the screen are the 2 buttons > imap or POP
    select imap and THEN CHANGE ALL THE ACCOUNT information to the comcast account !
    then hit next and the account will take a couple minutes to verify but it will verify and now you have a comcast imap acct set up on your iphone.  The problem must be that when the iphone sends the initial verify acct info to comcast (if you enter that information first) the comcast server is simply not setup yet to signal the iphone that there is an imap option.

  • Server 2012 R2 cannot update from 2008 R2 WSUS server

    Our WSUS server is on a 2008 R2 VM.  Updates for all 2008 R2 and lower servers, and Windows 7 clients work fine.  I have one Server 2012 R2 in production and it cannot check for updates.  It gets 800b0001 as the error code.  I can
    click on check for updates from Microsoft, then it does reach out to the Internet, download and install updates.
    I also tried from my Win 8.1 laptop and I get error 8024402C.  Any idea's?

    I found in another thread the fix.
    In regedit go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Update Services\Server\Setup and change "wYukonInstalled"
    from a 1 to a 0.
    Installer succeeds.
    However now the Update Services console does not work.  I get a connection error.  
    It's one thing after another with these things.  I don't understand why Microsoft can't ever make something simple.  IISReset did not cure this either.
    The WSUS administration console was unable to connect to the WSUS Server via the remote API.
    Verify that the Update Services service, IIS and SQL are running on the server. If the problem persists, try restarting IIS, SQL, and the Update Services Service.
    The WSUS administration console has encountered an unexpected error. This may be a transient error; try restarting the administration console. If this error persists,

  • How to create a .mdf SQL Server database from a Data-Tier Application file that has data?

    This is a noob question, though I do use SQL Server databases all the time with Entity Framework when I code in C# using Visual Studio 2013.  The development environment is found below at [A].  I am trying to make a clone of a SQL Server 2008 R2
    database (.mdf)  that exists online.  I can read, connect and work with this database in Visual Studio 2013, but I wish to make a local copy of the database, as an .MDF file.  Somewhere in my notes I have a way of creating a local copy from
    an online database when using Visual Studio but I forgot how (it seems, reviewing my notes, that it deals with ADO.NET which is deprecated in Visual Studio 2013 these days, or so it seems).  So I'm looking for another way.  What I did was create
    (or export) a "Data-Tier Application File" from the online SQL Server database, with data, and it seems to have worked in that this Data-Tier Application file exists on my hard drive and seems to have data in it ("SQL Server Replication Snapshot"
    is the format it seems).  It contains skeleton code to create a database, but when I tried to execute it with SQL Server 2014 Management Studio, I got a bunch of errors.
    So my question is:
    1) Can I somehow create a .MDF SQL Server Database from an Data-Tier Application file that has data?  What tool do I use?  I saw this link, http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/2639.how-to-use-data-tier-application-import-and-export-with-a-windows-azure-sql-database.aspx 
    and it relates to Azure, but is there a tool for C#Visual Studio 2013, standalone?
    2) If there's an easy way to create a .mdf SQL Server Database file from an online file, within SQL Server Management Studio?  I don't think so, since it would require Administrator permissions on the online server, which I don't have. I have permission
    to read, update, delete the online database file, but strangely not to download it (the service I use has a tool for backup, but not for download).
    3) same question as 2), but for Visual Studio 2013?  I don't think so, since I notice none of the templates even mentions ADO.NET anymore, but instead they go with Entity Framework.  Using EF I can of course do anything I want with the online database
    (CRUD), but it remains online.  Maybe there's a switch to make a local copy?  I guess I could write a short program to suck all the data out of the online database and put it into a new, duplicate database having the same tables, that I create on
    my localhost, but my question here is if there's an easier way than this, maybe a tool or command I can run from inside Visual Studio?
    Any advice on any of the above questions is appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Thanks but these links are too general to help.
    "2. what do you mean by online file?" - I mean the SQL Server database file is on a remote web server that I rent from, but I am not the administrator of.  I can access my database using SQL Server Authentication, but nothing more.

    What do you mean by too general? It explains on how you can use data tier application to create and deploy databases
    May be this will help you to understand better

  • It's official: server behaviors to be removed from DW

    Adobe has finally confirmed what I suspected would happen: server behaviors will be removed from the next version of Dreamweaver. They will still be available to install as an extension, but will no longer be part of the core program.
    http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2013/04/nextgendreamweaver.html
    There is no information regarding plans to develop a replacement for the server behaviors in a future version. I genuinely have no idea whether a replacement for the server behaviors is on the cards.

    Actually, after looking into this computer I think maybe I would be best to take it to an Apple repair center.  I don't want to break something.  I thought maybe if it was just an easy small battery install, I could do it.  I don't see where another battery can go.

    2) Change the Lotus Domino Server (LotusDominoData) service Startup Type from 'Automatic' to 'Manual'
    3) Reboot the server
    4) Defragment the drive (D:\ or F:\)
    5) Change the Lotus Domino Server (LotusDominoData) service Startup type from 'Manual' to 'Automatic'
    6) Reboot the server
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Binu - are you wanting to automate this process with TES?
    There is a windows cmd command "net stop" and "net start" you can use to stop and start a service.
    You will need to work with your windows admin or look online for a command line way to change the service to manual and to start the defrag.
    There is a shutdown command that can be run from cmd. It has a switch to force the reboot.
    You might also check out scripting with WMI.
    Hope this helps,

  • Run BW query from R/3, need output file saved on application server

    Hello all,
    We are currently working on BI 7.0. Is there a way where we can run a BW query from R/3 by some program or tcode? We need to run the BW query and use the output of that query as an input to some other custom program in R/3.
    If we can save the output file on application server than the R/3 program will pick up that file from there.
    Is there any standard delivered functionality that will allow us to do that or how can we achieve this.
    Can some help help with some suggestions or links?
    Thanks in advance.
