When I want to capture traffic (RTCP packets) "sent to" and "sent from" my local machine, I use this tethereal command and it runs fine:
tethereal -i 2 -p -R "rtcp" -V > d:\project\ethereal\rtcp.txt

I am trying to capture traffic (RTCP packets) destined for machines other than my own, but same LAN segment. I use this tethereal command and it does not work:

tethereal -i 2 -V -o "rtcp.heuristic_rtcp:TRUE" -R "rtcp" > d:\project\ethereal\rtcp.txt

I was reading that and I am disappointed because I though it was easier.
I think the easiest solution is to get a hub.
