The "Date" field however contains cryptic of 3-digit time entries, here's a random sample set: > 540 > 780 > 620 > 965 What's this? obviously its not 5:40 and 6:20.

It evidently needs a unix timestamp that is 13 digits long. How can this happen? Are they both counting from the same date? How can I use the same unix timestamp between...
