Yes, I usually do update at least every few days, just occasionally I don't want it to on some particular invocation. I was worried about a random huge value in case I overflowed into the sign bit and ended up negative or something (I don't know Perl well enough, nor do I know if those seconds get multiplied to milliseconds or whatever in the code) but, yes, I guess I could use 2^24 or something and figure that's going to be pretty safe! -- Mark _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
