No, because the file he had was presumably a text-format raw hex dump of
the AAL5 frame data (as he was using text2pcap to process it), not a
capture file in a format Ethereal can read (you can only use Tethereal
or Ethereal or editcap to convert files that can be read by Ethereal, as
the same code is used in all three programs to read those files).
