=== New and Updated Features
The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
since version 2.2.0:
* Experimental 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Installer (.msi) packages are available.
It is recommended that you use these independently of the NSIS (.exe) installers.
That is, you should make sure the NSIS package is completely uninstalled before
installing the Windows Installer package and vice-versa.
* Source packages are now compressed using xz instead of bzip2.
* The legacy (GTK+) UI is disabled by default in the Windows installer.
* The legacy (GTK+) UI is disabled by default in Autotools and CMake.
* SS7 Point Codes can now be resolved into names with a hosts-like file.
* Wireshark can now go fullscreen to have more room for packets.
* TShark can now export objects like the other GUI interfaces.
* Support for G.722 and G.726 codecs in the RTP Player (via the SpanDSP library).
* You can now choose the output device when playing RTP streams.
* Added support for dissectors to include a unit name natively in their hf field.
A field can now automatically append "seconds" or "ms" to its value without
additional printf-style APIs.
* The Default profile can now be reset to default values.
* You can move back and forth in the selection history in the Qt UI.
* IEEE 802.15.4 dissector now uses an UAT for decryption keys. The original
decryption key preference has been obsoleted.
* Extcap utilities can now provide configuration for a GUI interface toolbar to
control the extcap utility while capturing.
* Extcap utilities can now validate the capture filter.
* Display filter function len() can now be used on all string and byte fields.
