Hi Tomasz,

Hello,

In Wireshark there is Precision Time Protocol (IEEE1588) dissector
suing the abbreviation "ptp". There is also, currently without built
in dissector, Picture Transfer Protocol (ISO 15740:2008) that is
commonly referred to as PTP. MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) is
extension to Picture Transfer Protocol.


This is unfortunate, but can happen given the amount of protocols supported
by Wireshark.


What abbreviation should Picture Transfer Protocol dissector use?


iso_ptp maybe?

Cheers,
Pascal.
