I am trying to trace a SIP call that originates/terminates on the
same computer where Wireshark resides.
Wireshark dies with every call attempt.
When I default the Filter to everything, it captures ok, but when I
stop and select a packet, it dies.
Ideas?
If by "dies" you mean "crashes" or "hangs forever", congratulations!
You've just found a bug in Wireshark. See
http://bugs.wireshark.org/
to file that bug.
Does it crash/hang if you select *any* packet, or just a particular
type of packet?
Does this happen in a particular capture file, so that you can read
that file in and make it crash every time? If so, could you attach
that capture file to the bug? If you want, you can mark the bug as
"private" so that only the Wireshark core developer team, or members
of that team given privileges to look at "private" bugs, can see your
capture.
