If one is using the Wireshark's RTP Player feature on a system running at
1024x768 resolution, and there are more than four (4) RTP channels to be
decoded, then the resulting RTP Player window will be too tall to allow one to
access the buttons located at the bottom of the RTP Player window.

Currently the maximum number of RTP channels displayed is hardcoded at 5.   A
trivial patch to rtp_player.c changes this maximum value to 4. 

With SVN 23989 the "Voip Calls" window was enhanced with a "Select All' button
to allow the RTP Player window to decode rtp channels from multiple calls.  
This makes it very likely that the number of channels will meet or exceed the
current default maximum channels of 5.   

See attached patch to change the RTP Player maximum displayed RTP channels to
4.  

Please note: A future not-so-trivial patch (hopefully to be uploaded later
today) will add a preference for setting this value so that users with larger
(or smaller) screens can control the default RTP Player maximum height.)
