I'm not 100% sure which bit you are after, but the packet
bytes look like :-

Frame 199 (130 bytes on wire, 130 bytes captured)

0080   00 00                                            ..

And the decode window above shows:-

General Inter-ORB Protocol Request
  Request id: 236
  Response flags: SYNC_WITH_TARGET (3)
  Reserved: 0 0 0
  TargetAddress Discriminant: 0
  KeyAddr (object key length): 27
  KeyAddr (object key): ....RSTEm.6...J............
  Operation length: 11
  Request operation: getRefTime
  ServiceContextList
    Sequence Length: 0
[Malformed Packet: Q_QUENTINV3]

If I turn off our Q_QUENTINV3 protocol then the last line is not printed.

Another bit of information that might help. If I set the filter to giop
then the info in the main window looks like :-

Q_QUENTINV3 GIOP 1.2 Request 236: getRefTime[Malformed Packet]

Without the giop filter the "[Malformed Packet]" string is missing
