Re: [Wireshark-dev] Why does the extcap stuff take so long to start up?

Hi Erik and Jirka, Some comments for both of you (makes sense to reply to both together). Firstly, Erik, did you see my comments about the RTP player from a few months ago? (https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev/201612/msg00081.html) I didn't submit any of it as bug reports, but I could
