HI,

Hopefully someone finds some time to look into it. So rest assured it’s not forgotten. 

Thanks,

Hi Community,

Greetings from me! Very sorry for interrupting again!

I find the calculation of "Mean Jitter" KPI for RTP flow is like this 
(https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/blob/master/ui/tap-rtp-analysis.c#L497 
<https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/blob/master/ui/tap-rtp-analysis.c#L497>):

statinfo->mean_jitter = (statinfo->mean_jitter*(statinfo->total_nr-1) + current_diff) / statinfo->total_nr;

But in my humble opinion, maybe we should use current_jitter instead of current_diff? Like following one:

statinfo->mean_jitter = (statinfo->mean_jitter*(statinfo->total_nr-1) + current_jitter) / statinfo->total_nr;

Actually, I submitted an issue in gitlab before (https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/issues/17600 
<https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/issues/17600>), but unfortunately, it seems no one noticed it. So very 
sorry for reposting here, and hope someone can help to clarify it.

Thanks very much!

Best Regards
Nan Xiao
