The most likely cause of checksum "errors" when capturing packets with Wireshark is the driver/NIC combination of the 
machine you are doing this with. Many NICs are able to offload this function from the main CPU, improving performance. 
The normal network driver knows to ignore the checksum, not doing the work, and assumes it is being handled correctly 
by the NIC. Wireshark however calculates the checksum by default and matches it with what is in the packet, reporting 
the error falsely. It is unlikely you will receive real errors with Wireshark, as the CRC32 checks by the NIC and 
switch will drop errored packets and you won't see them. So you are best off turning this feature off in the 
appropriate preferences section for each protocol. 


See http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/ChAdvChecksums.html for more details.

Provided the packet is identified as RTP, it should be included. What errors are you referring to?
