MPEG2 I, P, B frames

0

Hello,

I use VLC to stream MPEG2 video files in MPEG TS container through UDP over LAN. I have captured packets with Wireshark and I want to ask if there is any way to identify which frames are I, P, B?

NOTE: for the pcap files link, ignore EVERYTHING that says "download" except for the "Click here to start download from sendspace" link; otherwise, it'll try to download some "download manager" program that probably won't work on anything other than Windows (as it downloads a .exe file) and that you probably don't want even on Windows.

Use "Decode as..." on the UDP payload and select M2TP. Then use the appropriate display filter to find what you need. "mpeg-pes.frame_type" may be one of them you're seeking.
