Wireshark · Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] merging many files using mergecap

["Boonie" <newsboonie@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Olivier,

That does the job. It took me hours with finding a sollution. Thanks a lot. 
This is much better than doing it by hand.

If anyone can think of a way to solve this with a batch file, I'd like to 
hear that too.

Dave

Solution 1 (depending on windows version/configuration) :
Into a cmd window : mergecap -w output.pcap        <NO return>
Then select all  *.pcap you want and drag and drop on the cmd window.

Solution 2 :
Create a shorcut of mergecap.
Add in target " -w output.pcap".
Change the starting directory to <what you want> if necessary.
Then select all  *.pcap you want and drag and drop on the shorcut.
