Hi,

I have a couple of problems with the dissectors I've written. Any ideas would be really helpful.

1) I get different displays on windows and linux. Specifically this file http://217.35.80.115/drm/example.pcap displays "MDI" in the protocol column on linux, but a different, lower level decode "DCP-TP" on windows. If I select a display filter including an MDI layer field (eg "MDI") then the windows display changes to be more like the linux one.

2) my DRM packet mode dissector (http://217.35.80.115/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/msc/packet-msc-data.c?rev=35&view=log) implements a dissector for the protocol specified in ETSI ES 201 980 V2.2.1 section 6.6. On linux it successfully reassembles data units using the fragment_add_seq_next function, but on windows this function always return NULL.

Any ideas?
