Revision history [back]

When the bag file was created, it recorded the /clock topic; this is a problem because I believe that the --clock option synthesizes (i.e. generates) a ros clock. So your play command is sending two different data streams to the /clock topic.

I would try specifying the topics you want rosbag to play back, and make sure not to publish the /clock topic from the bag file.
