If you do it with tapping it can in real time. The intention is to eventually
include a "dump to csv" button similar to the RTP analysis one, which would probably
serve for your purposes. What I'm afraid of is the "call status" thing. If you consider
a SIP call that has three dialogs, one of them with a change of media, the second closed and the third being transferred, choosing between "in progress", "completed",
or whichever states you have doesn't seem possible. And for H323 the number of
protocols involved is discouraging.

We completely agree :) That's a huge work, and focusing on simple calls would make it far easier. I think it would already be a good thing to have a proper analysis of easy calls, ie setup - callproceeding - alerting - connect - releasecomplete for H.323, or invite - ringing - ok - bye for SIP, plus usual cases of busy, reject, timeout. Managing tranfered calls would be much harder, and maybe not so useful. I don't even want to think of implementing all H.323...
