RFC 3550 says:
"
   Wallclock time (absolute date and time) is represented using the
   timestamp format of the Network Time Protocol (NTP), which is in
   seconds relative to 0h UTC on 1 January 1900 [4].
"

While the 'normal' time conversion routines use 1-1-1970 as epoch. That's a
difference of 70 years, which results in... 2208988800UL seconds.
You cannot assume the sample capture has the correct timestamp on it.
