Note that if you use "-w" the resulting file is going to be a PCAPNG (or PCAP)
file, not the output of tshark; you generally don't want to use "-w" with "-r".

Also note that (since you're not capturing) there's no need to use `sudo`
here--in fact it's a bad idea (since that means Wireshark's 2M+ lines of code
are running as root).

Hmm, it works fine for me when I do:

% ./tshark -r test1.pcapng -d "udp.port==12346,quic" -T fields -e udp.srcport
-e quic.tags | less

I'm not aware of any changes in this area but since you're using a development
release you might want to upgrade to the latest git just in case (that's what
I'm using).

(This could be WORKSFORME but I'll leave it INCOMPLETE for now in case there's
some followup.)

I think that bug 12507 should have fixed this.  If it's still a problem after
upgrading please open a separate bug report about it.
