Hello,

Here is a dissector for the Real Time Messaging Protocol which is used by the Flash plug-in for the live video streaming with the Adobe Flash Communication Server. As a dissector for another protocol named "RTMP" already exists in Wireshark (AppleTalk protocol) , I took an alternate name for mine (RTMPT). Since the protocol does not have "magic" words but rather has "magic" offsets, I added a field in the private_data passed by the TCP dissector for the "ack" sequence number. The RTMP protocol has been extensively reverse engineered by the Red5 project but this dissector only has a basic subset of the protocol.
The patch is generated against trunk version of today with the diff command.
I have uploaded in the Wiki a sample of an RTMP conversation (http://wiki.wireshark.org/SampleCaptures?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=rtmp_sample.tgz) and I ran more than 1100 runs of fuzz testing.
Please commit it.

Regards,

metatech
