Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] problem with gtk/rtp_player.c

Under Windows, the recent changes made to gtk/rtp_player.c cause the 2008 version of VC++ to die with a warning that assigning a double to time_t could cause a loss of precision.  I changed it by adding an explicit cast to guint64. This is the old problem with doing math on time -- time_t is an unspecified kind of numerical type.  My Linux box accepts either version.
