Time has an "at" method that takes a number of seconds and returns a time, so you could do something like ...

    ms = 1056030443784

    time = Time.at(ms / 1000)

    puts time

It also takes a number of microseconds as a second argument, so you could also do

    time = Time.at(ms / 1000, (ms % 1000) * 1000)

to get a more accurate time, if necessary.  Apologies if my arithmetic is crap in the second example :-).
