File: epan/dissectors/packet-mp2t.c

This patch set improves packet loss detection in for MPEG2 Transport Streams
(RFC 2250 / ISO/IEC 13818-1).

I'm the author of the current packet loss detection...


This patchset contains two patches.

1. Improve loss detection by counting skipped TS frames (currently we only
detect a drop). (only store the info globally)

2. Introduce an analysis tree and record/count the info per TS frame.


I'm using git+stgit and is working off SVN r30558, the last change to
packet-mp2t.c were at r28770 (checked at r30746).
