From my memories:
packets with the marker bit set don't take part in the jitter calculation.
This is because in RTP audio streams marked packets usually mark the end of silence periods.
The wrong jitter values probably come from the fact that there is no (or at least not the right) sampling clock rate defined for the used payload type.
Both issues would be worth revisiting.

Subject: [Wireshark-users] RTP Stream Analyses [Marker Bit]

Hi,

I streaming videos using VLC on the client side and Darwin Streaming Server on server side. When I analyse the rtp stream on the client side using Wireshark, I see some RTP with marker bit set and immediately after such RTP packet the jitter value is very high as compared to the previous one, plus it also displays Incorrect Timestamp. I looked up the marker bit in the RFC 1889 but they just state it as profile specific. Kindly, can anyone provide any further explanation? Plus does the abnormality in the jitter value means the jitter values further on are not credible ?
Thank you for yout time!
