ENC_TIME_TIMESPEC: Seconds (4 bytes) and
nanoseconds (4 bytes) of time since January 1,

ENC_TIME_NTP: NTP timestamps are represented as
a 64-bit unsigned fixed-point number, in seconds
relative to 0h on 1 January 1900. The integer
part is in the first 32 bits and the fraction
part in the last 32 bits.
