Comment # 2 on bug 13238 from
I think the better solution would be to try to address the malformed portion of
the packet/data, however I don't have access to the spec (it's not free) to
confirm my findings.

The issue appears to be that for descriptor tag type 0xA2, Wireshark expects to
parse minimally 5 bytes of data within that tag, and your packets only have 1
(group id).  Is group id = 0 something "special" that would carry less data?  I
hacked the dissector to only parse the first byte and things looked much
better, but I'd like spec backing on how the 0xA2 descriptor tag should be
parsed.
