There's an issue indeed. Why is delta=0 for all packets in analysis?
Sorry, I don't have the time to look at the code right now.

		Hi,

		 

		I am analyzing VoIP capture files in Wireshark 1.4 and am confused about the RTP analysis results.

		 

		The jitter results match what I expect, but the packet loss results do not.

		 

		I know for a fact that the file contains no packet loss and yet the RTP analysis screen reports all packets as lost "negatively" (and gives an odd -100% value).

		 

		Any ideas?



	Can you post a sample capture? <http://deepthoughtsbyjackhandey.com> 
	


It looks ok to me, Barry.  I'm not on the same version as you, but mine is older.

You have to decode your stream as RTP, perhaps that's the missing step?  At least on my version the heuristics did not identify your stream as RTP.
