Open Sound Control OSC, how to filter

0

I am trying to filter so that I can view only OSC (open sound control, http://opensoundcontrol.org/spec-1_0). I don't know where to start. I searched the Internet for hours to find a simple utility to do this, but found nothing. I know Wireshark must be capable, but need help.

So eg. my OSC is sent on port 1234 I can then filter based on this port #?

It's difficult to determine heuristically if a packet stream contains OSC. It's a protocol without ties to a transport protocol, so you'll have to know something about the used transport protocol in order to define a filter.

eg. using the following command:

$ sendOSC -h rodet 7009

produces a UDP stream to host rodet, port 7009, so udp.port==7009 should work.
