How to save a certain stream into a txt file with ascii

Hello guys I am to wireshark and in the network stuff. I am currently following only one UDP stream with wireshark and I can save it into a pcapng or pcap file. But I want it to be saved and updated in real time (like these two do) but just export a plain txt file of only the stream in ascii. I can do that manually by right click one of the packets, click follow the stream and save it as txt but it doesnt get updated automatically, the idea is that I could have the real time txt or two txts like pcap can do and use a python script to filter some information from it. Is there anyway to do it?

Also trying to export as plain text, doesnt export the stream but only the packet info and the data is not the same.
