Hello,
I Try to use nRFsniffer 1.0.1 on windows with Wireshark 2.0.1. Wireshark seems to crash at startup. (reported bug 12103 on wireshark bugzilla)
Please provide dll plugin for versions 2.0.x

Hello,
Wireshark support for version 2.0.x is definitelly in progress. The latest devloppement build here already support the nordic_BLE metadata. The pluggin dissector that was needed for versions 1.10.x has been fully integrated into wireshark sources and is not needed anymore. This means any Wireshark version above 2.3.0 (at the day of this post we are at 2.1.1 only) will nativelly support nordic_ble metadata.
For the "simple user" with NRFsniffer1.0.1 here is a basic help on how to use wireshark 2.3.0 or more (note it will be simplified if Nordic does an update of it's nRFsniffer):
For the first time only you open Wireshark:
Message for Nordic people: Please do an update to nRFsniffer so that the tool does not copy the dll anymore for Wireshark versions 2.3.0 and above. This is a realy easy update but will help a lot for long term support of BLE.
Thank you to Wireshark people that have integrated the plugin and for theyr great job on this tool.

EDIT July 2017 => new release 2.4.0 of wireshark has easier procedure

Hey any update on this? I had Wireshark 2.4.x running great. Removed it to install 2.5 because BLE5 opcodes weren't supported and now can't get anything to run. Pressing w in Sniffer doesn't launch WS, pipes aren't found, DLT_User10=157 doesn't seem to do anything. I wondrer if there is a new command to launch directly from command line that will do it, one that doesn't specify pipes?
