Hi, No, the intelligence isn't put into the RTP dissector, it's the other way around. The MPEG2TS dissectors registers itself with the RTP dissector, for payload type 33 (PT_MP2T, RFC 2250). If the RTP dissector gets such a payload it's passed to the MPEG2TS dissector.
What could be done is adding a preference to the MPEG2TS dissector to set a UDP port number to register on, so that ETH/IP/UDP/MPEG2TS is possible.
