Hi,

RTP analysis does not use all data

Ok. I was going for the easy "wait until done" but looks like there will need to be more thought put into a solution.

I checked the issue and the code and the point is that the RTP Analysis dialog do not use live tap, it just retap existing data when opened. It is BTW the way how to ensure that all packets were processed. The drawback is that it do not follow alive capture - data arrived after end of retap are not processed till next retap.
