1416493696.795345000 is either, by happenstance, an exact multiple of 1000 
nanoseconds, i.e. 1 microsecond, or has only microsecond precision.  Most time 
stamping in the capture mechanisms used by Wireshark has microsecond precision, 
not nanosecond precision.

The Wireshark code in

1.12.2 that gets the time appears to do a floating-point calculation that 
*should* provide the full resolution.  If the Lua in the Windows version is 
built with lua_Number being a double, which I think is the default, that 
*should* be sufficient to  hold a value of 1416493696.795345 with full 
precision.

How are you displaying the value in your Lua script?  Perhaps it's getting the 
time stamp with full precision but, for some reason, it's not displaying it 
with full precision?
