No - TShark has no idea that its standard output is being piped to 
another program (that's what pipes are all about - being able to take 
output of one program and, rather than looking at it yourself or saving 
it to a file, feeding it to another program).

It's probably a reassembly issue; particular protocols might offer an 
option to disable reassembly, but, as per my earlier mail, you'd get 
different output if you did that.
