Packets with “Time Reference” toggled displayed when “rtp.marker==1” display filter applied

0

Very strange thing happening with Wireshark 1.10.7. If you toggle the time reference for any packet (doesn't even have to be an RTP packet), and then apply the "rtp.marker==1" display filter, that packet will be displayed when it should not be.

Can anyone else confirm this is happening? Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong here?

Thanks.

No, you're not doing anything wrong. Some testing shows that packets with a Time Reference set are always displayed, regardless of what display filter is applied, even when the display filter is

"!(frame.ref_time)"

which should explicitly exclude all packets that have a Time Reference set.

Update: I have reported this as a bug on the Wireshark Bugzilla. Bug 10142.

Thanks Jim. Would you mind posting the bug number? I would be interested in following it. Thanks again.

Not sure this is a bug at all - it is often quite useful to see time reference points even when the packet would have been normally hidden by a filter. So this may be intentional.
