When using Wireshark to graph a VoIP call (Telephony->VoIP Calls...->Select
All->Graph or Flow) the H245 TCS display is corrupt and the OLC display is not
what is intended.

The TCS:

Rather than display "TCS" it displays "TCS(TCS(TCS(TCS(TCS(TCS(TCS)" - see the
attached image at position 2.541 on the timeline for an example.

The OLC:

Rather than show "OLC (genericVideoCapability)" just "(genericVideoCapability)"
is shown. See position 5.220 on the timeline for an example.

Causes: Both these issues seem to be caused by using the same buffer as both
the source and destination in calls to g_snprintf.

Proposed fixes (patch to be attached soon!)

The TCS:

The code intention seems to be to display "TCS" and the most recent codec
dissected in brackets after, eg "TCS (genericVideoCapability)". IMO displaying
the most recent codec dissected, which will be the last codec in the TCS, is
not of any use. This should just display "TCS"

The OLC:

The code intention here is to display "OLC (genericVideoCapability)" - this is
very useful when looking at the Graph/Flow output. This should be fixed to work
as so IMO.
