Title: Jitter wrong in wireshark?

Hi All,

Below is a rtp analysis from a wireshark 0.99.5 capture in a live network.

Doing by hand jitter calculation it doesn´t match. And of course, if below data is real it means we are having jitter of more than 1 minute !!

Exampe: first jitter should be 138.90/16 = 8.68125 [ms] and is showing 8803,82 [ms] !!!

Do someone know what could be wrong or what I´m missing?

BR
Juan
