Comment # 1 on bug 8511 from
In general this will not be possible, since Editcap is not linked with
libwireshark and does not dissect the frames at all (the current duplicate
detection is just a raw hashing of the packet bytes).

However, it might be probably be possible to optionally limit the duplicate
detection to the first or last N bytes of each packet, or to specify a range of
bytes to ignore in the duplicate detection.

I think this would be sufficient for your case? You would have to calculate the
byte offsets manually of course.
