Hello,
This is a problem uncovered while working on the now resolved bug 2017...
One symptom of this new bug is that the VoIP "Graph Analysis" report generated
by Wireshark is not always consistent for the same trace file.
The malformed "Graph Analysis" reports are generated if the gtk/voip_calls.c's
RTP_packet_draw() function get called multiple times during a TAP. If the
RTP_packet_draw() function is only called once during the TAP then the
resulting "Graph Analysis" report looks to be correct.
The RTP_packet_draw() appears to be called multiple times if and when the
system that Wireshark is running is very busy. One indication that the system
is "busy" is by the appearance of a temporary "Refiltering statistics on: all
packets" status window.
This problem can be most easily replicated by running Wireshark in valgrind or
by running Wireshark in gdb and inserting some specific breakpoints and/or
watch values.
I will soon upload a text file that illustates the Graph Analysis report
problem along with a trace file that can be used to replicate the problem.
