We should probably provide you with some wireshark/tcpdump traces to help debug this?

[ThomasTimm]

Yes, a wireshark file or tcpdump would help a lot :)

I think you are right in that it is an off-by-one error, but I don't see why. So if you can supply a datadump, preferably also with the previous ~10 data packages before the one that gives odd results, that would be a great help.

Since I cannot upload a pcap or compressed archive to github, please find it in the dropbox link below:

Also included is the log file as requested of the rostopic /joint_states.

Thanks, I'll look into it. Unfortunately my time to work on the project is very limited the next month, so it might be a while until I have it fixed.
If anybody else has the time to look at it, pull requests will be much appreciated.

[jettan]

I'll look into it myself too and see if I can come up with a pull request.

FIY I updated the code, so now it does the check for all current firmware versions
