Here's how I do it with perl and tethereal 

(Note: this won't work with 0.10a on Win32 due to bug in -x  )

# usage tethereal -x -r file.trc | perl BinEthSearch.pl
use strict;

# Put your regex here.
my $search = qr/put your search regex here/i;
my $prev_pkt;
my $bin;
while(<>) {
        # Is this a packet summary line?
        if (/\d+(?:\.\d+){3} \-\> \d+(?:\.\d+){3}/) {
                # First report any previous matches
                print "Match for : $prev_pkt\n" if $bin =~ $search;
                $prev_pkt=$_;
                $bin="";
        } elsif (/[0-9a-f]{4}\s+(?:[0-9a-f]{2} ){1,16}\s+([^\s]*)/) {
                $bin.=$1;
        }
}
