Yes, I also noticed this.  With an RTP encapsulated video stream, the PIDs are decoded.  With a UDP encapsulated video stream, no decocde is possible.

Does this mean this intelligence was built into the RTP module?  That seems to go against the whole point of encapsulation.  It would be far better to have a separate MPEGTS dissector - to apply against any type of stream.

HI,

MPEG2 Transport Streams packets are not decoded if they are transported directly over UDP (i.e. if RTP is not present).
Moreover MPEG2TS is not present in the list of protocols in "Decode As" list, so there is no way to decode MPEG2TS over UDP neither automatically ( i.e. by automatically detect that the UDP payload is MPEG2TS) nor manually (that means to add MPEG2TS to "Decode As" list)

Mau.

When Chuck Norris was in middle school, his English teacher assigned an essay: "What is Courage?" Chuck Norris received an "A+" for writing only the words "Chuck Norris" and promptly turning in the paper.
