Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Request for adding new features on MPEG2TS decoding

Hi to all,

From the latest sources (I've checked out the revision 22443), I see that the decoding of MPEG2TS packets arrives only till header + adaptation field while the payload is dumped, but the payload still includes other useful info: PSI table info (ISO/IEC 13818-1 par. 2.4.4) and PES packets (ISO/IEC 13818-1 par. 2.4.3.6) . PSI and PES packets can be also segmented to be transported over multiple consecutive transport stream packets, so a reassembly of these packets is needed in order to obtain the complete packet.
Is it possible to add, as new feature, the decoding (and reassembly) of PSI and PES packets (see ISO/IEC 13818-1 as main reference) ?

I'd like to know also if MPEG2TS over UDP (i.e. without RTP) will be supported in next releases.

Thanks

Mauro M.
