It seems that your server is buggy. I've seen this before with some  
versions of Apple's QuickTime (aka. Darwin) Streaming Server.

Therefore, receivers need to be on the lookout for unusual changes  
(decreases or large increases) in presentation time, and reset their  
internally-maintained offset between presentation time and 'wall- 
clock' time whenever they see this happen. (This is part of the  
Internet philosophy of "Be conservative in what you send, and liberal  
in what you accept.")
