I had doubts regarding the multicast statistics and indeed there is a coding
error while handling user input in the "buffer alarm" input field of the
dialog.

Steps to reproduce:

Open a capture
Open the multicast statistics dialog
In the input fields at the bottom type the following values (one in each
field): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Validate the input with enter.
Close the dialog
Open the multicast statistics dialog again
Look at the fields in the dialog and see: 1, 3, 10000, 4, 5 which is wrong, one
parameter has been transferred to the wrong field.

I had a look at the source code and see in
/ui/qt/multicast_statistics_dialog.cpp in function
MulticastStatisticsDialog::updateMulticastParameters() 

 401     param = burst_alarm_threshold_le_->text().toInt(&ok);
 402     if (ok) {
 403         mcast_stream_trigger = param;
 404     }
 405 
 406     param = buffer_alarm_threshold_le_->text().toInt(&ok);
 407     if (ok && param > 0) {
 408         mcast_stream_trigger = param;
 409     }

And line 408 is wrong, it was a copy and past from line 403, it should read

mcast_stream_bufferalarm = param

I wish I could push a patch by myself but it is a big too long for me to setup
a build environement for this one liner change ! Can someone do it ?
