Re: can Wireshark analize RTP(G729) stream and get the packet loss

I am pretty sure that Wireshark just uses missing RTP sequence numbers
(rtp.seq) to calculate loss. I just took a G729 RTP stream and
manually deleted a few frames, reloaded, and the Telephony:RTP:Show
All Streams statistics definitely showed  the appropriate loss.

Hi,all:

  I'm using wireshark to capture a VOIP-alike telephony call. The packets
are RTP, which carry audio payload encoded with  G729 codec, I use dummynet
to impose packet loss. Previously, when the codec is G711, wireshark can
show the exact packet loss, Now the codec is G729, the wireshark always
shows 0 packet loss when I set packet loss to 2%, is it because that the
wireshark is not able to analyse G729 audio stream and thus just show 0%
loss? Thank you!
