well, lsb timestamps are maybe 0..127 or 0..16383 or ..., depending upon the 
msb_timestamp_shift in the stream header, so if the vlc timestamp is in that 
range its a lsb timestamp, if its above its a full timestamp + 128 / 
16384 / ..., so a stored 500 would be a full timestamp with value 500-128 or 
a lsb timestamp with value 500 depending upon how many bits lsb timestamps 
use
