I wrote a dissector (RDM) that dissects a packet that is encapsulated in another packet (Art-Net). The Art-Net packet writes the Art-Net RDM info

over written by the RDM dissector. Is there away to prevent a dissector
(called with call_dissector) from printing its info into the columns ?
If you don't want the RDM dissector overwriting anything that the Art-Net dissector puts into the Protocol or Info columns, why not just have the RDM dissector not update the columns at all?
