I think there was a misunderstanding.
"Decode As" is working!
I'm looking for an option us this functionality without "decode as"
For example: I'm loading my capture file and it will automatically decoded
as my protocol in the plug-in if the Port is used.
Is there any possibility do realize that?
Thx

If it's possible to do it when the dissector is built in, it's possible
to do it if the dissector is a plugin.

You'd either need to
1) specify some port as the port your protocol uses;
2) have that port be a configuration option;
3) come up with a heuristic that checks some data in the packet to
see
if it's a packet for your protocol;
if you want it to be automatic (and 2) isn't fully automatic - you'd
still need to specify the port if it's not the current setting).
