Is there another approach I might take to accomplish this task?
Write:
a Perl script using Net::Pcap?

a Python script using python-libpcap
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pylibpcap/
or pcapy?
http://oss.coresecurity.com/projects/pcapy.html
a Ruby script using Ruby/Pcap?
http://www.goto.info.waseda.ac.jp/~fukusima/ruby/pcap-e.html
Or perhaps you can do it with Netdude?

(This is why we don't have our own capture file format - using a
standard format means there are tons of tools available to use on
Wireshark captures, and that Wireshark can read captures from other tools.)
