Hello,

I'm trying to find the cause of the intermittent audio/video dropouts I experience on my TV (connected via Ethernet to my cable box).

Wireshark is installed on my PC, which is also connected to my cable box via Ethernet. What settings should I use to monitor the audio/video streams on my fiber internet connection, please?

Thank you very much.

It helps to start with a diagram of the network topology, packet flow and capture point.

Capture will be difficult if the cable box is acting as a switch (PC won't see TV traffic) and/or the streams are encrypted..
