RTP telephony stream shows 0 jitter

asked 2022-06-09 15:48:32 +0000

I have a capture file of an RTP stream and wanted to check my jitter levels. However when i used the RTP->RTP Streams option under telephony these are the jitter values displayed: Min Jitter = -1 Mean Jitter = 0 Max Jitter = 0 I know for a fact that these values cannot be correct as there is a variance in delay so the mean can't be 0. I've seen some people suggesting that it could be a clock synchronization problem but I have no idea how to solve it. Any help is much appreciated!

Please add the Wireshark version info to the question.

Can you share a packet capture on a public file share and add a link to it in the question above?

If clock_rate is not set (tap-rtp-analysis.c) min_jitter is not calculated.
clock_rate is set based on the payload type.

I have not been able to find a sample capture with dynamic payload that is not DTLS.
The clock rate for dynamic payloads is extracted from a string in the packet (tap-rtp-analysis.c) that is not available due to the encryption.
Here is a similar issue: 17905 - RTCP compound packets not shown (closed)

All of the malformed packets in the capture are worth opening a new issue - Wireshark Gitlab Issues
(ReportingBugs, Wishlist - select Bug). Please add a link to it that points back to this question and link to the sample capture in the Gitlab Issue.

Assuming this is SRTP/SRTCP these are not malformed, just not decrypted.

There is a mix of [Encrypted RTCP Payload - not dissected] and [Malformed Packet (Exception occurred)]. Maybe not recognizing as encrypted sometimes?

Without the associated signalling it's hard to tell from the packet content alone.
